Proctology practice in Frankfurt - where you and your concerns and problems take center stage
People often endure discomfort in the rectum or anal canal for quite some time before seeking medical help. Treatment on these parts of the body triggers shame in those affected, which is why they often initially resort to home remedies and hope that these will provide relief. In the case of serious diseases, however, these are not sufficient in the vast majority of cases, and it is precisely here that the chances of successful treatment are better if diseases are detected at an early stage.
At the proctology practice in Frankfurt, your problems are taken seriously. Here, competent doctors will help you with diseases of the rectum, anal canal and perineum. Proctology Frankfurt uses state-of-the-art diagnostics to detect and treat diseases as quickly as possible. In addition to manual examination, procedures such as anoscopy, rectoscopy, endosonography, proctoscopy, computer tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are used. These quickly provide information about the clinical picture you may have. You can contact your proctology practice in Frankfurt for any complaints in the rectum, anal canal or perineum. Every treatment is based on an in-depth discussion in which you explain your symptoms in detail. Proctological diseases often manifest themselves through itching, burning, bleeding or constipation. These can be caused by various clinical pictures, which the practitioners at Proctologie Frankfurt will identify.
Proctology Frankfurt - Treatment of hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoidal disease is often the cause of the symptoms mentioned. Hemorrhoids are vascular cushions located under the rectal mucosa at the anus. These are often wrongly associated with negative connotations, as they actually fulfill an important function and, together with the sphincter muscle, enable control over bowel movements. They only cause discomfort when they are abnormally enlarged - when identifying this enlargement, a distinction is made between different degrees, which proctology Frankfurt uses as a basis for treatment. Depending on the extent, the procedures used can be of a surgical or non-surgical nature.
- Grade one is a mild degree of enlargement. The hemorrhoids are enlarged at this stage, but are not yet visible without a proctoscope. Bright red traces of blood on toilet paper often indicate enlarged hemorrhoids. At this stage, non-surgical procedures such as sclerotherapy or sclerotherapy are used. Here, substances are injected into the hemorrhoids which cause them to shrink.
- Grade two is already a severe enlargement, here the hemorrhoids dilate outward during bowel movements. There is increased tearing and skin irritation, which is why the typical symptoms such as burning and itching often occur at this stage. Treatment in proctology Hamburg is usually carried out via the already mentioned sclerotherapy or via a rubber band ligation - here the hemorrhoids are tied off with the help of a rubber band, whereupon the tissue dies.
- Grade three is referred to as prolapsing hemorrhoids. In this stage, the hemorrhoids emerge from the anal canal during pressing and can no longer retract on their own. Enlargement of hemorrhoids is also accompanied by intensification of symptoms. At this stage, the practitioners at Proctology Hamburg may advise surgical removal. Typically, a hemorrhoidectomy is performed or the stapler method is used. While the former involves the use of a scalpel, scissors or a laser, the latter method involves the removal of a small portion of the rectal mucosa in order to cut off the blood supply to the hemorrhoids. This is a modern and gentle method that causes less pain afterwards and heals faster.
- In the case of hemorrhoids of the fourth degree, surgical treatment is inevitable. At this stage, the hemorrhoids come out permanently, and repositioning is no longer possible. Affected persons suffer from severe pain at this stage.
Fortunately, very few people suffer from third or fourth degree hemorrhoids. If you suspect that you are affected by hemorrhoidal disease, your proctology practice in Frankfurt is the first port of call.
