As a type of inflammatory bowel disease that causes uniform and continuous inflammation in the colon and re**um, ulcerative colitis can result in symptoms of diarrhoea, fever, fatigue and abdominal pain or cramps.

Ulcerative colitis should not be left untreated, or it may result in serious complications that can affect both the digestive system and overall health, such as an increased risk of colon cancer and bowel perforation.

If you are experiencing any discomfort in your abdomen or any of the symptoms mentioned, schedule a consultation with an experienced colorectal specialist for prompt diagnosis and effective treatment. 📞𝟲𝟮𝟲𝟮 𝟭𝟮𝟮𝟲

结肠息肉是生长在结肠内壁上的异常增生。

虽然大多数结肠息肉属于良性，也不会引起明显症状。但是，部分息肉若未能及早发现和切除，有可能会随着时间推移发生癌变，并发展成结直肠癌。

为预防结直肠癌的发生，定期结肠镜检查是最有效的预防措施。在检查过程中，医生可精准地检测出结肠内的任何异常增生并迅速将其切除，从而防止这些息肉发生癌变。

对于无风险因素且年龄超过50岁以上的人群，通常建议每10年进行一次结肠镜检查。但对于高风险人群，如有结直肠癌家族史，则应考虑更早开始筛查并提高筛查频率。

A hernia occurs when an organ or fatty tissue protrudes through weakened muscles in the abdominal wall, causing a noticeable bulge or lump under the skin, usually in the abdomen or groin.

Once a hernia forms, it will not resolve by itself and can grow larger over time, leading to severe pain and discomfort. In more serious cases, strangulation or obstruction may even occur, which will require prompt medical care.

This is why it is important to get diagnosed early to prevent complications and ensure timely treatment.

At 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲, our team of colorectal surgeons is skilled in hernia repair, particularly minimally invasive surgery via the laparoscopic approach.

When an a**l gland becomes infected and fails to heal properly, a tunnel known as an 𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗳𝗶𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗹𝗮 can form between the inside of the a**s and the skin around the a**s.

Symptoms include:
• Persistent pain and swelling
• Fever and chills
• Discharge of pus or blood
• Redness, soreness or irritation of skin around the a**s

Typically, an a**l fistula does not resolve on its own, and surgery is required to prevent recurrence and further damage to the a**l sphincter muscles.

Fistulotomy, in which the fistula is cut open so it can heal from the inside out as a flat scar, is commonly used.

To receive prompt treatment for your a**l fistula, consult with a colorectal specialist today. 📞𝟲𝟮𝟲𝟮 𝟭𝟮𝟮𝟲

Laparoscopic and robotic techniques are two forms of minimally invasive surgery that have enhanced surgical care for many colorectal conditions, including:

• Colorectal cancer
• Diverticular disease
• Inflammatory bowel disease

While laparoscopic surgery is performed by hand, with the help of microsurgical instruments and tiny cameras, robotic surgery is operated with the assistance of an advanced robotic system that provides 3D imaging for increased precision, flexibility and control.

Compared to traditional (open) surgery, both laparoscopic and robotic approaches are performed with small incisions that allow for a shorter recovery time, lower risk of infection, less post-operative pain, and smaller scars.

At 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲, our team of colorectal surgeons is skilled in all forms of minimally invasive surgery. To schedule a consultation, reach out today. 📞𝟲𝟮𝟲𝟮 𝟭𝟮𝟮𝟲

痔疮是一种位于肛门部位的常见疾病，可影响各年龄段的人群。

痔疮的主要成因是由于肛周血管的压力增大，并可能是因慢性便秘、排便时过度用力以及分娩等因素所致。

虽然痔疮通常不会危及生命，但若不及时治疗，痔疮只会恶化，甚至会发生嵌塞，引发剧烈绞痛。

若您出现肛门肿块、排便习惯改变、排便时疼痛或出血等症状，请联系我们的结直肠专科医生进行咨询。📞𝟲𝟮𝟲𝟮 𝟭𝟮𝟮𝟲

Colorectal cancer often develops silently in its early stages, with symptoms becoming more noticeable only as the condition progresses.

Recognising the warning signs early can make a significant difference:

⚠️ Re**al bleeding
⚠️ Changes in bowel habits
⚠️ Unintended weight loss
⚠️ Anaemia
⚠️ Abdominal pain or bloating
⚠️ Persistent tiredness

To detect colorectal cancer in its early stages when it is most treatable, regular colonoscopies play an important role.

A colonoscopy not only helps detect colorectal cancer but also allows doctors to identify and remove precancerous polyps before they turn cancerous.

If you are over the age of 50, or are experiencing symptoms suggestive of colorectal cancer, arrange a colonoscopy at 📞𝟲𝟮𝟲𝟮 𝟭𝟮𝟮𝟲.

A common and treatable condition when managed properly, diverticular disease refers to the formation of small, bulging pouches in the wall of the large intestine.

This condition usually progresses in two main stages: diverticulosis and diverticulitis.

Diverticulosis is often asymptomatic, and requires no immediate medical treatment.

Diverticulitis, on the other hand, causes severe abdominal pain, fever and nausea. Treatments for diverticulitis vary from prescribed medications to surgery, depending on its severity.

Should you suspect you may have diverticular disease, consult a colorectal specialist for a detailed assessment. 📞𝟲𝟮𝟲𝟮 𝟭𝟮𝟮𝟲
