Your core is more than just your abs—it includes the pelvic-floor muscles that support bladder control, stability and everyday confidence.
The Core-to-Floor approach combines two non-invasive technologies:
💪 EMSCULPT NEO® helps strengthen and tone abdominal muscles while supporting body contouring.
🪑 EMSELLA® stimulates the pelvic-floor muscles to support neuromuscular control and address urinary leakage—all while you remain fully clothed.
Two advanced treatments. Two different areas. One connected approach to strength and wellness.
Schedule a consultation with Dr. Aisha Akhtar to learn whether these treatments may be appropriate for you.

Seeing blood after a bowel movement during pregnancy can be alarming.
A small amount of bright-red blood may come from pregnancy-related hemorrhoids, constipation or an a**l fissure—but re**al bleeding should not automatically be considered normal.
Common clues may include:
• Bright-red blood on toilet paper
• Constipation or straining
• A**l itching, swelling or a tender lump
• Sharp or burning pain during a bowel movement
Contact your healthcare professional if the bleeding persists, keeps returning, becomes heavier, is mixed into the stool or occurs with significant pain.
Seek urgent medical care for heavy or continuing bleeding, black or tarry stool, dizziness, faintness, marked weakness or severe abdominal pain.
If you cannot tell whether the blood is coming from the re**um or va**na, contact your obstetric care team promptly.

**Do hemorrhoids go away—or can they keep coming back?**
Hemorrhoid symptoms may improve, but constipation, straining, long toilet visits, frequent diarrhea, low fiber intake, and heavy lifting can contribute to recurring flare-ups.
Gradually increasing fiber, drinking adequate fluids, and improving bowel habits may help relieve symptoms. However, persistent re**al pain or bleeding should not be ignored. A medical examination can confirm whether hemorrhoids—or another condition—are causing your symptoms.

**A Stronger Core Can Support Better Movement 💪**
EMSCULPT NEO® isn't only about body contouring. Its HIFEM® technology stimulates powerful muscle contractions and can be used to strengthen and condition muscles as part of a broader functional-wellness approach.
At MyColonDoc, **Dr. Aisha Akhtar** offers EMSCULPT NEO® for appropriately selected patients interested in improving muscle strength, core conditioning and overall functional wellness—all with a completely non-invasive treatment.
For patients experiencing lower-back discomfort, weakness or instability, proper evaluation remains important because back pain can have many causes. EMSCULPT NEO® should not replace appropriate medical assessment, physical therapy, exercise or other indicated treatment.

What kind of doctor treats hemorrhoids? Primary care physicians and gastroenterologists may evaluate hemorrhoid symptoms, but a colon and re**al surgeon (colore**al surgeon), often called a proctologist, specializes in conditions involving the a**s, re**um, and colon.
A colore**al surgeon can evaluate symptoms such as:
🩸 Re**al bleeding
🔄 Recurrent hemorrhoid flare-ups
⚡ Painful or thrombosed hemorrhoids
⬇️ Pr*****ed hemorrhoids
🔍 Persistent a**l lumps or swelling
Hemorrhoids are usually diagnosed through medical history and examination, and treatment may range from conservative care to office-based procedures or surgery depending on severity.
Not every episode of re**al bleeding, a**l pain, or prolapse is caused by hemorrhoids. Persistent re**al bleeding or ongoing symptoms should be medically evaluated.
