Churru๐ฅจ came to our clinic with a wound near her anus. After wound exploration and multiple checks, we realised that her actual anus was closed and that the current wound had become her new functioning anus. Part of the wound was a skin tissue that was hindering her ability to properly defecate.
We then surgically removed the skin tissue and kept her on long term lactulose to prevent constipation and ensure smooth defecation functions.
Churru's๐ฅจ condition has improved tremendously over...
