Abstract Anorectal diseases encompass a wide range of disorders affecting the lower gastrointestinal tract, particularly the anus and rectum. These conditions are common and often lead to significant discomfort, impairment of daily activities, and a reduction in quality of life. Among the most prevalent anorectal disorders are hemorrhoids, anal fissures, anorectal abscesses, and fistulas, each contributing to varying degrees of morbidity. Hemorrhoids, characterized by the swelling and inflammation of veins in the rectum and anus, are particularly common and can present with symptoms such as bleeding, pain, itching, and prolapse. The etiological factors for hemorrhoids include prolonged sitting, straining during bowel movements, pregnancy, and chronic constipation. Diagnosis typically involves a physical examination, often supplemented by anoscopy or colonoscopy in more complex cases. Treatment for hemorrhoids varies depending on the severity and may range from conservative measures like dietary modification and stool softeners to minimally invasive procedures, such as rubber band ligation, and, in more severe cases, surgical intervention. This aims to provide a concise overview of the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and treatment options for anorectal diseases, with a focus on hemorrhoids, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and appropriate management to prevent complications and enhance patient outcomes.
