Throughout medicine and surgery, a comprehensive evaluation of patients with anorectal complaints requires a detailed history, a thorough physical examination, and the addition of directed diagnostic studies. Such a systematic approach will optimize the opportunity for an accurate diagnosis and the development of an effective management plan. In addition, an orderly approach facilitates a comfortable experience for the patient by simultaneously instilling confidence and minimizing embarrassment.
