Summary

This study aims to understand the mechanisms of straining on anorectal testing, to better help people receive more effective treatment advice. The study also aims to understand how point-of-care anorectal testing with an FDA-cleared device called Rectal Expulsion Device (RED) helps to identify people that might benefit from specific treatments that target pelvic floor muscle problems that lead to straining and hemorrhoids.
