How can a proctologist treat my anal pain?
This is an area you cannot "see". Your physician will be able to examine your rectal area. Many times pain is caused by an anal fissure (a small tear), hemorrhoids that you cannot feel, small sebaceous cysts which cover an ingrown hair, an abscess, or even just skin irritation. Keep your appointment to find out what is going on in the area. READ MORE
