If an examination of your rectum (back passage) is too painful or your consultant needs to treat an area of your rectum, you may be given general anaesthetic.

Having this examination while asleep allows your consultant to view the area while your muscles are relaxed. They may also take a biopsy (sample) of any problem areas to be sent to a lab for analysis.
