What are hemorrhoids?

Hemorrhoids are swollen veins in the lower rectum or anus. They can be:

• Internal – located inside the rectum, often painless but may cause bleeding

• External – under the skin around the anus, often painful and uncomfortable

Common symptoms

You may already be experiencing early signs without realizing:

• Bleeding during bowel movements

• Itching or irritation

• Pain or discomfort when sitting

• A feeling of incomplete bowel evacuation

• Swelling or a lump near the anus

What is a pilonidal cyst?

It is a small sac under the skin, usually containing hair and debris, located at the top of the buttocks crease. Over time, it can become infected and form an abscess.

Signs you shouldn’t ignore

Many patients initially dismiss the symptoms:

• Pain or tenderness near the tailbone

• Redness or swelling

• Drainage of fluid or pus

• Unpleasant odor

• Discomfort when sitting

These signs often indicate that the cyst is becoming infected.

What is an anal fistula?

It is an abnormal tunnel that forms between the inside of the anal canal and the skin near the anus, usually following an infection or abscess.

Symptoms you may be noticing

• Persistent pain or throbbing

• Recurrent swelling or abscesses

• Discharge of pus or fluid

• Skin irritation

• Occasional fever

These symptoms often come and go, creating a false sense of improvement.

Laser Proctology

Laser proctology is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to treat common anorectal conditions such as haemorrhoids and fistulas. Using precise laser energy, this advanced treatment allows your consultant to remove or seal tissue with minimal pain, bleeding, and downtime compared to traditional surgery.

What is involved in laser proctology?

Laser proctology procedures are typically carried out as a day-case treatment at our advanced surgical facility. The exact technique used depends on the specific condition being addressed, and your colorectal specialist will provide a detailed explanation of the planned procedure beforehand.

In most cases, the treatment day includes the following steps:

• You will first attend a brief pre-procedure consultation where your colorectal surgeon reviews the treatment plan and addresses any remaining questions you may have.

• Depending on the nature and complexity of your condition, either local or general anesthesia will be administered to ensure your comfort during the procedure.

• You will be positioned lying either on your back or on your stomach, with your legs supported in an elevated position.

The surgeon will gently insert a proctoscope into the rectum in order to clearly visualize the affected area and accurately guide the laser instrument.

A thin laser fiber is then carefully introduced to the targeted tissue.Using controlled laser energy, the surgeon will seal, reduce, or remove the diseased tissue while minimizing impact on the surrounding healthy structures.

The entire procedure generally takes about 30 minutes. Once the treatment is completed, you will be moved to a comfortable recovery area where you can rest. After a short observation period, you will receive detailed post-procedure care instructions and will usually be able to return home on the same day.
