Minor Rectal Bleeding

Your rectum is the lowest part of your large intestine. In the rectum, your body stores stools.

Hemorrhoids, incontinence, abscesses, and cancer are common issues in the rectum.

Rectal problems are nothing to be ashamed of; they are very common. These problems are important to disclose to your GI doctor. Embarrassment is unnecessary and can hinder your health. If you are experiencing pain or bleeding, contact your doctor right away.

Diagnoses and treatments vary for rectal troubles. Your GI doctor will run tests to find the best treatment options for you.

Dr. Farboud and his staff are extremely sensitive and empathetic to patients’ fears and anxieties. They take exceptional pride in making their patients feel comfortable and at ease when visiting their offices.
