Rectal wall thickening

Thickening of the rectal wall may be caused by pathological factors, such as non-neoplastic and neoplastic causes. It is usually discovered during endoscopy or CT examination and requires a comprehensive judgment based on individual clinical symptoms and other examination results.

Rectal wall thickening is usually discovered during colonoscopy when there is a change in the intestinal wall structure, such as acute or chronic intestinal inflammatory response, including intestinal polyps. When there is inflammatory stimulation, the intestine usually has symptoms of edema and is prone to congestion. Therefore, thickening of the intestinal wall can be observed. It is generally necessary to take anti-inflammatory drugs in time, such as amoxicillin capsules or penicillin, etc. If there are intestinal polyps, they need to be removed surgically in time.

After the rectal wall thickens, there are also tumor factors, such as the appearance of malignant tumors in the rectum. Cancer cells often have symptoms of spreading, causing normal rectal mucosal cells to be covered. This can be found during an abdominal CT scan. If an abnormal tumor is found, local biopsy is required, and then a pathological section examination is performed, mainly to determine the specific nature.

After the rectal wall thickens, you need to go to the hospital in time to determine the specific cause. In severe cases, surgical treatment is generally required to avoid further damage to the rectum, which will also cause serious impact on your health.
