Proct-

As mentioned, proctos is the Greek word meaning “anus,” and the prefix derma comes from the word dērmis, meaning “skin.”

Proct is a painful condition that can be caused by various reasons, such as hemorrhoids, constipation, colitis and other intestinal diseases.

It begins with a feeling of discomfort in the anus, usually accompanied by painful itching or burning. There may then be a discharge of blood, mucus, or feces from the anus. If you notice such symptoms, you should consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
