My husband has been advised to undergo colon or rectal surgery. What should we expect from the procedure, and how is the affected part of the intestine treated?
My dad underwent colon and rectal surgery. In his case, the surgeon removed the affected section of the intestine and reconnected the healthy ends. Recovery involved monitoring his bowel movements and gradually returning to his usual diet and activities. We discussed his condition with Dr Ho Kok Sun, a Colorectal surgeon in Orchard Singapore, before the procedure.
