Acne is a collection of connective tissue, arteries and veins that can develop around your anus or in the rectum. Acne symptoms range from benign, such as itching, to severe, such as bleeding or debilitating pain. Your doctor can usually treat your acne symptoms non-surgically. In rare cases, surgery may be required. No matter how serious your symptoms are, you always seek treatment from a colon and rectal specialist who was formerly known as a rectal surgeon. Generally, treatment may include only conservative measures such as stool softeners and topical steroids such as betamethasone, potent steroid preparations or other forms of topical steroids. In the most serious form, acne may require surgery.
Acne can be external or internal, large or small. The external hemorrhoid is located inside or outside the anal canal. The internal hemorrhoid is located at the height of the anal canal, which is more likely to bleed, and can cause a slight anal discharge, causing severe itching. When it comes to acne, size is not always important. Small acne can cause big problems, and big acne may not cause any problems at all. What matters is the severity of the symptoms.
Hemorrhoids sometimes prolapse or protrude beyond the anal canal. Hemorrhoids shedding can be painful, but sometimes they retract without any treatment. Thrombotic acne develops when acne enlarges and clots. When a swollen vein breaks through, thrombotic spasms can cause severe pain and bleeding the skin. Non-thrombotic external hemorrhoids can also cause bleeding, pain or anal itching.
Most acne treatments begin with filling the stool with fiber or synthetic fillers. Your doctor may advise you to eat more high-fiber foods such as vegetables, fruits, beans and beans. Synthetic bulking agents are sold in the over-the-counter part of your pharmacy or market. These simple interventions help to eliminate the trauma of hard stools in the anal area.
Topical steroids such as betamethasone, when used under the guidance and supervision of a doctor, relieve the anal area by reducing inflammation. Prescription strength ointments can provide rapid relief, but these drugs can not be used for long periods of time because long-term use of c weakens or stimulates anal skin.
When the minimum intervention fails, your doctor may try a more aggressive treatment, such as a surgical hernia or hemorrhoidectomy; a procedure in which the doctor uses a rubber band to stop the blood flow; sclerotherapy or Injection therapy, including the injection of diluted phenol (a chemical solution) into the area around the acne; infrared coagulation or coagulation therapy, medicalUse infrared to heat acne, cut off blood supply; or PPL prolapse and acne procedures, where your doctor uses an anastomotic device to partially remove and reposition acne tissue.
It is important to confirm that your symptoms are not something more serious caused by some people, such as anal cancer. Benign problems such as anal fissure can mimic the symptoms of acne, but the treatment of cracks is quite different. Don't be afraid to seek medical care. Colon and rectal specialists can diagnose your problems quickly, gently, and subtly.
