Colorectal Disorders Challenges:
In India, about 36% suffer from colorectal problems. There are major challenges in India to handle all these things. There are different kinds of colorectal problems like piles, fissure, constipation, colon cancers, and inflammatory bowel disorder like ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease.
Whenever patients have these problem, somehow in India there is social stigma and taboo attached to this problem. Hence, people feel shy and they have some kind of fear in seeking medical help. In India every person who suffers from this problem, suffers in silence for about 9 years before they seek medical help.
To seek medical help they won’t go to a proper medical practitioners. We have about 1.5 millions quacks in this country with different names practicing across the nation. People go to quacks and they make patient’s life miserable.
