Hello,
With the question “What is the main cause of male anal discomfort? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
For rectal tumors, depending on the situation, surgery may have completely removed the tumor and made a permanent colostomy or the tumor may have metastasized. The tumor cannot be removed, but only an upper colostomy is made to remove the stool. In case the tumor has been removed, if after surgery normally, but now there is a feeling of wanting to defecate, it is necessary to check for recurrence of the tumor at the lower resection (needs clinical examination with fingers, CT scan or sub-frame MRI). drugs, ...). In case the tumor cannot be removed (the tumor is still in place), the feeling of tenacity is very common due to the mass effect that stimulates the central nervous system to create a sense of urgency or the double-bore opening of the colostomy may be possible. and a part of the stool still goes down, causing stagnation of stools and straining.
If you still have questions about men's main anal discomfort, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
