Proctalgia Fugax
Overview-
Proctalgia fugax is a mild condition where an individual feels an unexpected, extreme and harsh anal and rectal pain, which is temporary in nature, i.e. it continues for a certain span of time. The pain is rapid and harsh in nature, occurs in intervals and is felt like a pain. The discomfort of proctalgia fugax is frequent and happens at irregular episodes. The exact reason for why proctalgia fugax happens is unclear and it does not appear to be linked to any kind of biological disease. One of the reasons of proctalgia fugax is supposed to be contractions in the anal cord. Other donating reasons include anxiety and stress.
Causes-
• As stated before, the root cause of proctalgia fugax unclear. The ache of proctalgia fugax is supposed to happen due to contraction in the smooth muscles of anal sphincter and the anal.

• Proctalgia fugax is supposed to be pudendal nerve’s neuralgia. Pudendal nerve regulates the functions of the rectum, bladder and genitals.
• Proctalgia fugax is also supposed to happen as a result of a sickness of the inner anal sphincter.
• Another paying reason of proctalgia fugax is extreme nervousness and stress. Irritable bowel syndrome, constipation and sexual actions can also generate an instant of proctalgia fugax; however, it can also arise without any triggers.
• Reduced levels of potassium can also impact the smooth muscles of the anal area producing proctalgia fugax.
The causes of FMS are unknown. Sometimes, fibromyalgia occurs spontaneously. Some people speculate that traumatic or stressful events can cause fibromyalgia. Others believe it can be caused by repetitive muscle injuries. It is also sometimes linked to other serious illnesses as well. According to NIAMS (National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Disease), researchers are beginning to speculate how the brain and spinal cord process pai...
This disease affects the muscles in the intestines. It can cause gas, abdominal pain, diarrhea and constipation. It usually does not lead to further diseases. Most people can control the symptoms through diet, stress management and medication.
Description/Clinical Presentation: a 24 year-old male was referred to a hospital for specialized management of consistent symptoms such as: intermittent epigastric and lower abdominal pain that had started around 7 months earlier. Around that period the patient lost 11 pounds. One month before being admitted to this current hospital, the patient was visiting a primary outpatient clinic several times and he was given medication to control the persistent symptoms, but the symptoms after medication were not corrected. The patient was later admitted to a primary hospital for only one week. Gastroduodenoscopy, colonoscopy, abdominal sonography, and laboratory examination was performed to determine the cause of the symptoms the patient was experiencing. Results of the examinations showed that the patient was diagnosed with Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Laboratory tests showed peripheral blood, blood biochemistry, and serum electrolytes all within the normal ranges. Urine and stool occult blood test were also conducted and showed no abnormal findings. and was given medication. But due to again the symptoms not improving, the patient was referred to the current hospital to

Fibromylagia is a chronic disorder that causes wide-spread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue and tenderness in localized area. So far the disorder can't be cured, but can be managed through treatment. The client will need to be diagnosed by a medical doctor and unhappily may live with fibromayaigia for years if not for the rest of their life. However, clients should remember that they aren't alone,today over 5.6 million Americans suffer from this disorder
Fibromyalgia is a medical condition characterized by chronic widespread pain and a heightened pain response to pressure. Most people believe that Fibromyalgia is rare; however, it is estimated to impact more than 5 million citizens of the United States alone. It is dominantly found in women more than men with 80% of reported cases being those of women. It usually onsets in middle age even though it is a long-term disorder. Diagnosing a patient with Fibromyalgia may take time but it is very possible considering there are more than 4,000 published studies.
When asked about his typical elimination pattern, the patient stated that he voids several times daily, and typically has one bowel movement per day. The patient denied any concerns nor expressed any problems regarding his usual pattern of bowel/bladder elimination. He also denied any symptoms such as pain, bleed, unusual appearance or pattern. Furthermore, he has previously experienced dysuria and hesitancy by record. No treatment regarding elimination is implied at this time. There were no labs drawn in respects to the patient’s fluid or electrolyte status.
Your rectum is the lower portion of your colon, where stool forms. If the rectum dribs out of its normal place within the body and shoves out of the anal opening, the situation is called rectal prolapse. Rectal prolapse is generally caused by a dwindling of the muscles that support the rectum. In the initial phases, a prolapse might happen only after a bowel movement. The protuberant rectum may then slide back via the anal canal on its own. Over time, however, the prolapse might become more severe and could necessitate surgery.
Pyometra is defined as the collection of pus in the uterine cavity. The main cause of pyometra is cervical canal occlusion usually secondary to carcinoma cervix; however, other benign causes are endometrial polyp, leiomyoma, infection especially senile cervicitis, a forgotten intrauterine device, cervical occlusion after surgery, and radiation . The usual presentation of pyometra is a whitish discharge per vaginum. Sometimes the patients may present with the clinical triad of abdominal pain, purulent vaginal discharge, and postmenopausal bleeding. Nearly more than 50% of nonperforated pyometra patients are asymptomatic [4]. The most frequent preoperative diagnosis are generalized peritonitis, pneumoperitoneum and perforated gastrointestinal (GI) tract [5].
Chronic constipation is more likely to cause rectal prolapse than infrequent, episodic constipation. Spinal cord injury or surgery might precipitate rectal prolapse as can a long-lasting habit of straining to have a bowel movement. Determination of treatment depends in part on the reason of the prolapse. Pelvic muscle workouts would not be useful in prolapse occasioning from perpetual neurological impairment to the involved muscles. Reddish-colored tissue might protrude from the anus, particularly after a bowel movement. Trivial amounts of rectal bleeding might be noted intermittently. Contingent on the severity of the prolapse, fecal incontinence might occur.
Sexual dysfunctions “are characterized by disturbance in sexual desire and in the psychophysiological changes that characterize the sexual response cycle and cause marked distress and interpersonal difficulty” (American Psychiatric Association, 2000, p. 535). Sexual Pain Disorders are classified as a category of sexual dysfunctions by the most recent Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. Vaginismus and dyspareunia are the only two sexual pain disorders, and vaginismus is the only one unique to the female gender. Vaginismus is a disorder that has been identified in women for hundreds of years now. The first written records about vaginismus date back to the 11th century, and it was documented in 1861 by a scientist called Sims. He recorded details about a woman who was married f...
Stress incontinence is leakage that occurs when an activity places stress or pressure on the bladder. Sneezing, heavy lifting, coughing, exercising, getting out of a car, laughing and getting out of bed are common triggers for stress incontinence. The second type is called urge incontinence and is sometimes referred to as an overactive bladder. Urge incontinence strikes suddenly and is an uncontrollable need to empty the bladder. It is often described as a miscommunication between the bladder and the brain. Urge incontinence can be triggered by dreaming, hearing water running, dealing with a locked door or drinking even a small quantity of
There are several forms of both of these diseases. The type of each disease relates to the location in digestive tract in which the inflammation is occurring. Whereas one person may experience discomfort originating from the area of the gastrointestinal tract that is near the rectum, anot...
can block the urinary tract. This blockage will probably cause a lot of pain. If
Men and women sexually go through a cycle. This cycle is known as the sexual response cycle. The sexual response cycle is made up of four different phases, the excitement, plateau, orgasm, and resolution phases. The cycle is also categorized in two ways, vasocongestion and myotonia. Vasocongestion is where swelling occurs because blood rushes to certain areas of the body such as earlobes, for women to the opening of the vaginal area, and for men around the testes, it also causes the erection of the penis. Myotonia is what causes hands and feet to spasm, affects the face, and the involuntary movements of orgasm, these occur because the muscles are tightening creating these movements and spasms to occur. (Nevid & Ruthus, 2005).
