Conditions That May Require Anal Canal Surgery
Anal canal surgery is recommended when medical treatments are not effective or when complications arise. Common conditions include:
1. Hemorrhoids
Painful, swollen veins in the anal canal that cause itching, bleeding, and discomfort. Severe or recurring hemorrhoids may require surgery.
2. Anal Fissures
Cracks in the anal lining that cause sharp pain and bleeding during bowel movements. Chronic fissures often need surgical intervention.
3. Anal Fistulas
Abnormal tunnels between the anal canal and skin that lead to infection, discharge, and pain. Surgery is required for complete healing.
4. Anal Abscesses
Pockets of pus that form due to infection. These are typically drained surgically to prevent complications.
5. Rectal Prolapse
When the rectum slips out through the anus, causing pain, bleeding, and incontinence. Surgery is required to restore normal structure.
6. Anal Cancer
Cancerous growths in the anal canal may require surgical removal along with additional treatments.
7. Chronic Infection or Inflammation
Persistent infections or inflammatory conditions that affect the anal canal and do not respond to medication.
