WHAT IS COLORECTAL SURGERY?

The term "colorectal" is a combination of two words: colon and rectum.

This term often refers to all organs of the lower digestive tract, including the colon, rectum, anus, pelvic floor and small intestine.

Colorectal surgery includes a wide range of surgical procedures that can treat conditions affecting the lower digestive tract, ranging from hemorrhoids to diverticulitis to cancer.

Colorectal surgeons have completed specialized training on the surgical care of conditions affecting the small bowel, colon, rectum and anus. The two primary categories of colorectal surgeries are abdominal surgery and anorectal surgery.

  • Rectal

  • Diverticulitis

Haemorrhoid non-surgical treatment

What are haemorrhoids?

Haemorrhoids (piles) are the most common anal disease. Haemorrhoids are areas in the anal canal where tissue containing blood vessels have become stretched or swollen. This can occur due to increased pressure in the veins of the anus, because of childbirth, chronic constipation, obesity, diarrhoea, heavy lifting, family history or for no obvious reason at all. 

What are the symptoms of haemorrhoids?

The symptoms of haemorrhoids include

  • Anal itching

  • One or more hard, tender lumps near your anus

  • Anal ache or pain, especially when sitting

  • Bleeding from your rectum

  • A haemorrhoid that has fallen through your anal opening, called prolapse

 

Fissure treatment with Botox

Injections of botulinum toxin (Botox) may help heal a fissure (tear) in the anus.

The internal anal sphincter, which is one of two muscles that control the anus, is constantly under pressure. If this pressure is too high, spasms and reduced blood flow can lead to an anal fissure or prevent an existing one from healing. Botox temporarily paralyzes these tensed muscles reducing the spasm and allows the fissure to heal.
