Anorectal Dyssynergia Treatment – Expert Diagnosis & Pelvic Floor Care

Anorectal Dyssynergia, also known as Dyssynergic Defecation, is a pelvic floor disorder in which the muscles of the rectum and anus fail to coordinate properly during bowel movements. Instead of relaxing, these muscles tighten or contract, making it difficult to pass stool. This condition is a common cause of chronic constipation and can significantly affect quality of life if left untreated.

Our experienced gastroenterologists specialize in diagnosing and treating anorectal Dyssynergia using advanced diagnostic techniques and personalized treatment plans, including biofeedback therapy, to restore normal bowel function.

What Is Anorectal Dyssynergia?

During a normal bowel movement, the pelvic floor muscles and anal sphincter relax while the rectum contracts to allow stool to pass. In anorectal Dyssynergia, this coordination is disrupted, resulting in difficulty evacuating the bowels despite the urge to do so. This condition is a functional bowel disorder and is often treatable with non-surgical therapies.
