Specialty Category
Proctology is a specialized branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of disorders affecting the anus, rectum, and lower part of the digestive tract (colon). It deals with a wide range of conditions that can cause pain, bleeding, swelling, itching, difficulty with bowel movements, and other anorectal symptoms.
This page groups the relevant Proctology treatment and procedure pages already published in the EPIC CMS. It keeps the specialty overview clean while still exposing focused patient journeys.

Hemorrhoids, commonly known as piles, are swollen and enlarged veins located in the lower rectum and anus. They develop when increased pressure causes the veins in this area to stretch and become inflamed. Hemorrhoids can occur inside the rectum (internal hemorrhoids) or under the skin around the anus (external hemorrhoids).

Anal fissures are small tears or cracks in the lining of the anus, usually caused by trauma during the passage of hard or large stools. These tears can expose the underlying muscle, leading to pain, irritation, and bleeding during or after bowel movements.

Anal fistulas are abnormal tunnel-like passages that develop between the anal canal or rectum and the skin surrounding the anus. They most commonly occur as a result of an infection in the anal glands that leads to the formation of an abscess. When the abscess drains, either naturally or surgically, a persistent tract may remain, resulting in an anal fistula.
