Speaker: David Winston, RH (AHG)
Proctology is the study and treatment of diseases of the rectum and anus. In many areas of the country there are few proctologists and the therapeutic options they utilize are often limited and can be quite painful. While the common conditions that affect this part of the body (hemorrhoids, rectal spasms, rectal fissures, renal pruritis, fecal incontinence) are not life threatening, they can be very painful, embarrassing and negatively affect the quality of life. In this class we will discuss this often neglected topic and the herbal protocols, lifestyle modifications, dietary changes, exercises and nutritional supplements that can in many cases offer significant benefits without having to resort to surgery or to continue to suffer where you sit.
