Doctor explains SYMPTOMS OF ANAL CANCER - plus risk factors, diagnosis and treatment

It may be rare in the UK but not in America. They are sending out test kits to everybody on Medicare now and a letter saying it is the 2nd most common cause of death in my state of Georgia.

I think I just wipe a little harder

Is it possible to have 5 cancers all happening at once? This would be a human record, I think you shouldn't bother quitting drinking. It's not going to make any difference, but I should soon. Lol 🖤

Brilliant Doctor. Great delivery and well said.

Some times an itchy bottom can be caused by lack of magnesium --- or you could have worms--- using small pieces if ice around yr anus or put a small piece into yr anus can stop the itching temporarily!!!!! If iching hasnt stoped after goi g through these few steps its best to go see yr gp!!!!! Good luck

Doctor doctor, do you have any data on the occurrence of anal cancer in people that have had a total colectomy and J pouch formation. I had this procedure almost 40 years ago and still going strong. Excuse the pun.

🐝🏁 Good video thanks for sharing 👍

Dr I felt a mushroom like with a long stem when I insert my hand in the rectum but the colonoscopy showed only some small hymroids I suffered with itching over 20 years I am confused any advise thank you

I was diagnosed with anal cancer aged 55 , I had a tiny flap of skin on the exit of my bottom which I thought nothing of but after a biopsy proved to be cancerous.
I had a routine 5 week course of radiotherapy at Christie’s along with chemotherapy in week 1 and week 5.
I got the all clear 3 months later and have been clear for 6 years- please get checked if suspicious

Thank you for this video. I am currently experiencing most of the symptoms and am very worried about my health. I’m glad to hear that it does not always mean that it’s cancer. Getting checked out soon

I think i have hemorroid i have bleeding .pain . Constiupation . Itching 😢😢 are you in uk please ?

Bien faire les tests de contrôle afin d’éviter des souffrances ! Mangez sain et moins sucré possible.

Hi doc i had a peri anal abscess a few years back but there is a small opening that hasn't closed fully..whats you take on this case

Stool getting thinner and thinner.

Another symptom is still getting thinner and thinner.Had anal cancer a few years ago. Now I just have to deal with type 2 diabetes,hypertension,overactive thyroid,irregular heartbeat and an autoimmune disease.

Thank you for explaining this to me. I watched my mom go through anus cancer many many years ago. She had the treatment and ended up 1st degree burns from the radiation. She was up in her late 70"s. It really took a lot of her.we are inthe U.S.

I'm having pencil-thin stool.
. Really afraid to know this...

Hi I had got some fresh blood in stool a week back, not after that , but a little pain continued and burning sensation after stool, the stool movement is not hard its soft and I dont have any abdominal pain is it a concern ?

Very clear and concise. Thank you for taking the time to help and educate.

weight loss as well

Farrah Fawcett died from this....

Very clear explanation. You are indeed a brilliant doctor.

I was bleeding from the back passage and I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis.
Before seeing my Dr I had no pain etc… I just had the bleeding which got me down psychologically.
I’m now on medication and all the bleeding has now stopped.
I recently went for a scan and another endoscopy procedure.
I was diagnosed 4 yrs ago and my local hospital have kept on top of my colitis… they have been fantastic

Dr. Donovan’s demeanor is so reassuring. Anyone who has him as their doctor is indeed fortunate. Thanks for the soothing video, Doctor. 👍

Eat a well planned whole plant diet and drastically reduce your risk.

Isn't this the cancer that Farrah Fawcett had?

I been bleeding often.

Hi Dr please can you have a guess at what my problem may be, my symptoms are fever, anal discharge, always constipation, always tired. Thank you

they are finding that some people they think it is also those that have inflammatory diseases in the pelvis long term. They also say having a biopsy can not PULL cancer through to colon or anas or other areas. I have colon cancer and yes, I had images a week prior and AFTER the surgeon did the biopsy, it went from a stage 2 to INSIDE the organ instantly to the last stage 4. yea...

I've had inflammation for ages and finally done a colonoscopy and there was inflammation instead of hemorrhoids.

Well, watching them melt away within 48 hours felt so good, and yes, I used what I mentioned the other day. It actually took a bit more to make them totally disappear, I just go’ogled Melissa Thanderski and the pain unexpectedly disappeared so quickly.

Thanks for this

Ah hell! I thought I had a bad case of hemorrhoids.
Turns out I think I have a bit of anal cancer.

Is this a sign

Doc please l have been suffering from anal itching for almost two years, how am l going to treat

What if you see blood like 3 time in 1 month ? But it has been seen twice

Nice video Doctor. I have small circular open wound in the area.

Please, what's the steps one can cure cancer by himself or herself when he doesn't want to do the radiotherapy

The human body just sucks huh?

i was 27 years old when they removed 3 precancerous polyps. Going for my 4 year follow up next month. let’s lower the age for colonoscopies!!

My father got three times pimples in anus area. First time in July 2022, second time in February 2023 and third time in April this year.

Actually he had Fistula.

He visited local doctor and take medicines and cream, but he doesn't want surgey/operation of fistula. He is 46.

Pimple ripe and he feel pain, a lot of pain, and after one or two days, it burst and he get relief.


I want to ask, Is there any risk of Anal Cancer? Should he go for surgery? What is the percentage of chance to develop anal cancer.

Thank you for sharing doc

This type of cancer is formed by Lithuania(country) remotely with directed energy weapons,chips,nano drones.Lithuanians play remote body, brain torture games.They see you at molecular level through walls and destroy it with heat, cold, vibration and other physics forces with directed energy weapons.

I have a question I once had pilonidal cyst in 2017 and time to time butt cleft and near anal area becomes very painful especially with hormonal change it is like nerves on fire pulsating discomfort sort of shooting pain degree 3 4 out of 10 there is no bleeding or bowl issue I try to incorporate fibers and bowl movements are ok however high risk of cancer in family. I am worried since I never surgically did anything about pilonidal cyst it is underlying cause. I am not sure to what category of speciality I should go check it out. Family dr not helpful at all

I have piles a lot and i was scared to go to the doctor and also it's really itchy around my anus

Thanks for explaining what to expect at the doctor's--can definitely give people peace of mind.

Thank you for a lucid presentation, doctor.

I was treated for anal cancer in 2012. Had chemo - mitimycin and 5FU the 1st week of 30 radiation treatments. The last week I had 5FU. I’m still here and almost 64 😊. I was stage 3a - no nodes and no metastasis.

Ok Good.
But is there a fool-proof treatment for it...?.
If there, pls elaborate.
