A member asked:

I have 5 small black/blue freckles around my anus. i have had hemorrhoids in the past & more recently red blood after wiping. also, ibd symptoms. help?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Proctologist: I find that a proctologist is much better qualified and more interested in treating anal and hemorrhoidal problems, but a gastroenterologist is best to evaluate and treat issues concerning IBD or IBS.
