A patient has symptoms of rectal bleeding and vague anal discomfort. Proctoscopy reveals dilated veins in the mucous membrane of anus Which condition is described?

A. Improper perineal hygiene:

Poor perineal hygiene can allow bacteria (like E. coli) from the anus to migrate into the urethra, leading to UTI.

B. High level of physical activity:

Exercise is not a direct risk factor for UTI development.

C. High-sodium diet:

Sodium intake affects blood pressure and fluid balance, but not UTI risk directly.

D. Radiotherapy to the pelvis:

While radiation can damage pelvic tissues and later increase UTI risk, it’s less common and not the primary classic risk factor compared to hygiene issues.

A. Xanthelasma and Jaundice:

Xanthelasma (cholesterol deposits near the eyes) and jaundice (yellow skin from liver dysfunction) are not signs of DVT.

B. Itching and dark-colored:

Itching and discoloration can occur with chronic venous insufficiency, but acute DVT typically presents with pain, swelling, and tenderness.

C. Flank Pain and Arcus Senilis:

Flank pain suggests kidney issues, and arcus senilis (white ring around the cornea) is an age-related eye finding, not DVT.

D. Edema and tenderness over a vein:

Swelling (edema) and tenderness over the affected vein are classic signs of a DVT.
