Rectal examination can usually be done rectal digital examination, anoscopy, electronic colonoscopy, etc., as follows:
1, rectal digital examination: the doctor will use fingers to enter the patient's anus and rectum, palpate the rectal site for the presence of lumps, and understand the size, texture and activity of the lumps.
2, anoscopy: use anoscope to enter the rectum to observe whether there are hemorrhoids, polyps, etc., erosions, ulcers, etc., as well as their number and size.
3, electronic colonoscopy: colonoscopy through the anus into the patient's intestinal tract, can check the patient's entire colorectal situation.
