What is Cryptitis?
Cryptitis is an inflammatory process in the rectum where the anal glands are inflamed. The boundary between the outer skin and the transitional epithelium of the anal canal to the mucosa of the rectum resembles a jagged line called the Linea dentata. The points are called anal papillae, and the "valleys" between the points are crypts. The ducts of the anal glands open into the depths of these crypts. If the duct of such an anal gland becomes blocked, it leads to cryptitis. Cryptitis mainly arises due to problems with stool evacuation. Cryptitis is the precursor to the anal fistula, with gradual transitions between the two. Cryptitis is a rather rarely diagnosed condition involving inflammation of the ducts of the anal glands. These glands are only slightly developed in humans and are often the cause of anal complaints. However, these complaints are often also attributed to hemorrhoids.
What are the symptoms of Cryptitis?
Symptoms of cryptitis can include dull discomfort around the anus, such as stabbing or pressure in the anal area, burning after bowel movements, or itching inside and outside the anus. These symptoms are often also attributed to hemorrhoids as well. Read more here about the symptoms of cryptitis and the causes of cryptitis.
