Welcome to this website devoted to the diagnosis and treatment of haemorrhoids and rectal bleeding. No symptom or complaint can be looked at in isolation.
The whole patient needs to be evaluated before any conclusions can be drawn or treatments instituted. This site is expanded to provide information in many related areas of patient concern.
Whilst all attempts have been made to ensure accuracy, the Clinic does not accept any liability for the use or application of this knowledge.
We are unable to provide any detailed feedback to your e-mails apart from general advice. Should you feel the need to contact us, an appointment can be made by e-mail or by telephone or fax.
To diagnose medical or surgical problems in this area, a formal consultation is required which includes a full history, thorough examination and any investigation that may be required.
The local applications sooth the surface of the haemorrhoids and shrink the veins.
There are simple preparations such as Rectinol, which can be readily purchased from the Pharmacist over the counter.
In addition there are agents, which contain Cortisone. The Cortisone controls the swelling.
The agents such as Ultraproct or Scheriproct are more expensive.
The agents may be applied as a cream, ointment or suppository.
