Anorectal disease is a collection of disorders that most commonly includes anal fissures and fistulas as well as hemorrhoids, anal warts, tears and anorectal abscesses. The most common symptoms of an anorectal disease are chronic itching, bleeding and swelling of the area around the anus, diarrhea, a burning pain and sometimes a pus discharge. Primary care physicians (internists and family medicine doctors) as well as gastroenterologists, colorectal surgeons, general surgeons, urogynecologists and gynecologists all routinely treat patients with different forms and severities of anorectal disease, with specialist referrals typically provided for more severe or complex cases.
