Does proctitis not heal for many years can cancer

Proctitis

is an inflammation that occurs in the rectum. It can be divided into acute proctitis and chronic proctitis. Proctitis does not heal for many years. Chronic proctitis patients may cause abnormal proliferation of rectal mucosa due to repeated inflammation. Over time, cancer may occur. Second, the stool will oppose rectal stimulation during daily defecation. The stool contains a large amount of toxins. The rectal mucosa is stimulated by these toxins for a long time, which may also induce rectal mucosa malignant transformation.

Therefore, it is recommended that patients should take timely treatment to repair the damaged rectal mucosa to the maximum extent and reduce the risk of cancer.
