Hope for GI Patients Through a Blend of Traditional and Alternative Therapies


When it comes to health, many people fall on opposite sides of the spectrum of modern medical practices versus alternative therapies. This is a long-standing debate not just between health professionals but also ordinary people who are seeking help for their various ailments, particularly when dealing with issues related to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. There is rarely a good “middle ground” where these two worlds meet to bring effective treatment options from which a patient can benefit. That is until you walk into Dr. Fulmes Health Institute, where Dr. Fulmes found a way to integrate the best of modern medical treatments and alternative therapies into comprehensive solutions for many patients.

A Painless, Modern Approach for Anal Fissures

When seeking therapy and medical help for their diagnosis, many patients are deeply concerned about the side effects that come along after each therapy session. It is this concern that keeps many individuals from turning to health professionals for help. Knowing this fear that troubles many patients, Dr. Fulmes was able to develop a noninvasive procedure that provides a permanent resolution of anal fissures, the leading problem most proctologists deal with on a daily basis.

An anal fissure is a small tear in the mucous membrane of the anal canal or rectum. It causes great discomfort and impacts the patient’s quality of life in a significant way. Many patients find themselves dealing with intense pain or bleeding after bowel movements, spasms, or swelling in the anal ring region. The symptoms surrounding anal fissures worsen if left untreated, making medical intervention a necessity.

The current golden standard used throughout the world for treating anal fissures is a procedure called sphincterotomy, which is an incision made to the sphincter muscle. Unfortunatley, this procedure can cause permanent stool or gas incontinence. Dr. Fulmes’ treatment for cases where conservative therapy is ineffective offers a permanent solution to anal fissures, eliminating the risk of incontinence. The method involves expanding the patient’s anal canal and, after taking into account the anatomy and physiology of the patient, a modification of the local inflammatory response is made

Dr. Fulmes has performed this procedure for the last 10 years, delivering successful outcomes for over 600 patients. Many patients refer to this procedure as magic. And what is the true beauty of this procedure? It is noninvasive, meaning it doesn’t require surgery, and is over in about 10 minutes at Dr. Fulmes’ office! Those who received this therapeutic treatment experienced pain relief that very same day. The inflammation, pain, and discomfort of anal fissures will all be a thing of the past when Dr. Fulmes’ method is involved in providing the care.
