Anal Fissure
A tear in the tissue of the anus commonly caused by large or hard stools because of constipation.

Anorectal Abscess
An abscess, or pocket of pus from an infection, located in the anus or rectum is typically caused by a clogged anal gland.

Bowel Or Anal Incontinence
Uncontrollable or unwanted passage of stool caused by things such as rectal prolapse, Crohn’s disease, damage to the nervous system, and more.

Colon Cancer
Risk factors for colon cancer, the longest part of the large intestine, include a family history, Crohn’s disease, smoking cigarettes, and obesity.

Constipation
This is caused by the colon’s muscles moving too slowly causing the stool to absorb too much water and harden. Typically marked by less than three bowel movements in a week.

Crohn’s Disease & Ulcerative Colitis
Crohn’s disease, a type of inflammatory bowel disease, occurs when there is redness and swelling and sores along the digestive tract. Ulcerative colitis, another type of inflammatory bowel disease, happens when the lining of the large intestine and the rectum become red and swollen.

Diverticulitis
Diverticulitis occurs when the pouches in your colon become inflamed with or without infection. Risk factors include family history, low-fiber diet, a diet high in red meat, and lack of physical activity.

Fistula In Anus
This occurs when an abnormal passage forms from the anal canal to the skin near the anus, most likely because of an abscess in the anal gland.

Hemorrhoids
Located inside the anus or under the skin around it, hemorrhoids occur when the veins or blood vessels in and around the anus and lower rectum become swollen and irritated.

Pilonidal Cyst
These are cysts that are formed on the skin near the tailbone and in the upper crease of the buttocks. They may be caused by ingrown hairs in the area.

Rectal Cancer
Risk factors for cancer of the rectum (the last part of the large intestine before the anus) include a family history, Crohn’s disease, smoking cigarettes, and obesity.

Rectal Prolapse
When part of the rectum bulges out of the anus, this is referred to as rectal prolapse. It may go back into the anal canal on its own but, over time, may become more severe, needing surgery.
