PROCTOLOGY
Proctology is a medical field focused on diagnosing and treating diseases of the rectum, anus, and perineal area. Many patients delay visiting a doctor due to embarrassment, but it’s important to remember: the earlier a problem is identified, the easier it is to resolve!
What symptoms warrant a visit to a proctologist?
- Pain, itching, or burning in the anal area;
- Blood in the stool or on toilet paper;
- Constipation, diarrhea, or frequent urges to defecate;
- Prolapse of nodes or a foreign body sensation;
- Discomfort during prolonged sitting.
What conditions does a proctologist treat?
- Hemorrhoids (non-surgical and surgical methods);
- Anal fissures (conservative and surgical treatment);
- Proctitis, paraproctitis (inflammatory diseases);
- Rectal cysts and fistulas;
- Polyps and neoplasms.
Diagnostic and treatment methods
The doctor uses modern and painless examination methods:
- Anoscopy and rectoscopy (mucosal examination);
- Colonoscopy (if necessary);
- Pelvic ultrasound;
Treatment is tailored individually, ranging from medication therapy to minimally invasive methods such as sclerotherapy, latex ligation, and laser hemorrhoid removal.
Important! Don’t endure discomfort – a timely visit to a proctologist can prevent serious complications and preserve your health!
