INDICATIONS TO SEEKING A PROCTOLOGIST'S SERVICES

A proctologist should be visited if you notice any alarming symptoms: unpleasant sensations, discomfort or pains in the anal area during and after bowl evacuation, traces of blood or mucus in feces.

PROCTOLOGY SERVICES PROVIDED AT THE RCMC

The consultation begins with a detailed interview of the patient’s complaints. This includes clarification of the time when the symptom occurred first. A proctologist's examination involves a digital anal canal examination, and a study of the rectum and the anal canal with the use of special instruments. If required, additional testing may be appointed.

• If the examination was scheduled for the first half of the day, please refrain from eating; if it was scheduled for the second half of the day, a light breakfast if permitted with products that do not cause gas production.
