Proctology deals with the diseases of the rectum, the prevention of these diseases and their treatment.

Most people have a variety of aches and pains in the area of the anus at one time or another. Most of them accuse hemorrhoids for these ailments and often treated with ointments, suppositories or sitz baths.

However, the result is often disappointing because the reasons for the symptoms were different, and  many other diseases can also occur here. One should always keep in mind that there could be even malignant diseases behind the problem and should therefore not take complaints and especially bleeding in the anal area lightly.
