Summary

Sitz bath is conventional and empirical remedy and commonly recommended for non-operative treatment of various anal diseases. However, as there was no substitute for sitz bath until now, the patients have to accept the inconvenience for treatment of their diseases.

Electronic bidet is used with convenience as automatic device for cleansing the perineal area, especially after defecation. The similarity of contacting water to perineal area, clinical use of electronic bidet has been suggested for treatment of anal diseases. However, there had been few reports of clinical use of electronic bidet.
