Medical Conditions - Anal Stenosis

Anal stenosis is a condition where the anal canal is compressed, due to which the bowel movement and passage of stool becomes difficult. This condition is usually the result of hemorrhoid surgery, scar tissue formation, due to birth defects or infection. The treatment options include surgical reconstruction of the anal canal.
