Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why there has been pus coming from my rectum, and it has also been swollen and painful. It gets better for a while, but then the pain returns. Where can I go to treat intussusception effectively?Doctor's answer:
If after careful examination and consideration it is determined to be intussusception, it is generally stable through active treatment. In very few cases, surgery may ultimately be required for treatment, as severe conditions may lead to intestinal necrosis, which can cause peritonitis and bacteremia, necessitating emergency surgical intervention. Generally, treatment can be provided in a secondary or higher-level general hospital in the local area, and it should be able to achieve stability.
