If you are exploring care for haemorrhoids, anal fistulas or perianal abscesses, the topics below can help you prepare for your visit. The need for surgery and choice of treatment depend on tests and an in-person assessment.
Clinical areas
Recurring haemorrhoids or anal fissures and questions about treatment
Treatment depends on severity. Tell the doctor how long symptoms such as bleeding, pain or prolapse have lasted and what triggers them. The doctor will assess the condition with an anal examination and discuss when medicines, minimally invasive procedures or surgery may be appropriate.
High anal fistula or perianal abscess requiring a treatment assessment
Inadequate treatment of a high complex anal fistula or perianal abscess can lead to recurrence or affect anal function. Bring records of previous surgery or drainage. The doctor will assess the path and extent of the fistula and discuss options that protect sphincter function. The treating team will decide which procedure is appropriate after assessment.
Rectal prolapse, rectal polyps or an anorectal mass
At the visit, discuss how to assess the lesion, whether removal is needed and when to treat it. Bring any colonoscopy, pathology or imaging records to help the doctor assess the condition.
Persistent chronic constipation or anorectal narrowing
Chronic constipation and anorectal narrowing often have several contributing factors. Explain how long symptoms have lasted, your bowel habits and previous treatments. The doctor will assess whether an underlying physical cause needs treatment and discuss conservative or surgical options.
