Blood in stool thought to be hemorrhoids, but it turned out to be anal canal cancer after investigation

  The patient, Ms. Xu, recalls that her father has always been healthy, but in the past six months he has often had diarrhea. The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into. The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market.   The doctor asked about the specific symptoms in detail after hearing Ms. Xu say that she was giving her father medicine for hemorrhoids.  After hearing her description, the doctor’s heart thumped because those symptoms she described were similar to anal canal cancer symptoms. However, since the patient had not been given an anal canal, rectal finger examination and biopsy, the anorectal doctor did not immediately draw a conclusion, so she immediately suggested that Ms. Xu go home and bring her father to the clinic for a specific examination.  ”The test result was indeed anal canal cancer.” Ms. Xu said that thanks to the doctor’s meticulous consultation, she did not let her father miss the opportunity to be treated. “Everyone must learn a lesson, if you are uncomfortable anywhere in your body, you must go to a specialist hospital to receive an examination, don’t diagnose yourself and be careless and paralyzed!”  Recently, Ms. Xu’s father received treatment, the surgery was successful, and Grandpa Xu recovered quite well. “Do I look like a young man with makeup on now!” Thinking that he will be discharged home in a few days, Grandpa Xu, who is over 90 years old, is very happy.  Anal canal and perianal canal tumors are clinically rare, accounting for less than 2% of colon and rectal tumors. Anal canal cancer, due to its early symptoms, is not obvious and initially manifests itself as symptoms such as blood in stool, while blood in stool is a common symptom of anorectal diseases such as hemorrhoids, anal fissures and colorectal cancer, which requires anoscopy and e-colonoscopy to identify the real cause of the disease.  In fact, many patients with anal canal cancer have the symptom of blood in stool at the early stage, but they think the blood in stool is because they have hemorrhoids and do not go to hospital for examination in time, which delays the early diagnosis and treatment of the disease. Therefore, we remind you that once you find blood in stool, you should go to a specialized hospital for e-colonoscopy in time to diagnose the disease and formulate a correct treatment plan.
