Rectal disorders encompass a range of conditions affecting the rectum, including haemorrhoids, anal fissures, and rectal prolapse. These rectal disorders often cause symptoms such as pain, bleeding, and discomfort. Diagnosis typically involves physical examination, imaging, and sometimes endoscopic procedures. Treatment varies based on the specific rectal disorder but may include medication, lifestyle changes, or surgery.
