[Management of female dyschezia in primary care consultation: non-instrumental biofeedback].
BACKGROUND
Dyschezia, a frequent pathology, is often self diagnosed and self managed by patients and treated indiscriminately by physicians.


OBJECTIVE
Within the framework of therapeutic care of dyschezia during primary care consultation could the non-instrumental biofeedback applied in urology stand for an alternative?


METHODS
Prospective study on 17 dyschesic women aged between 20 and 50 who have been treated by non-instrumental biofeedback during primary care consultations. They have been subject to a detailed anamnesis, a physical test and targeted complementary check-ups. A therapeutic protocol (non-instrumental Bio feedback) has also been applied to them.


RESULTS
24% of the studied cases have been recovered and an improvement has been observed at 35% of them. Positive results have been achieved when the disorder was neither ancient (> 3 years) nor severe (Score < 4).


CONCLUSIONS
The non-instrumental bio-feedback for dyschezia cases should stand for a prior phase to instrumental biofeedback more invasive and by far more expensive.
