Abstract

A topical treatment for anorectal disorders with and without utilization of a contoured seat cushion with a temperature-adapted or electrical stimulation element that can provide hot or cold temperatures or electrical stimulation to the anorectal region.

Claims (18)

1. A seat comprising:

an operative surface dimensioned to accommodate a human sitter, wherein the operative surface has a perimeter defined by a front edge, a rear edge and two opposing longitudinal edges, wherein the operative surface defines a plurality of longitudinal contours extending between the rear edge and the front edge;

each longitudinal contour comprising:

a first elevation along the rear edge; and

a second elevation approximately eight inches from the rear edge, wherein the second elevation is a maximum elevation for the operative surface, wherein the plurality of longitudinal contours defines a latitudinal concave portion having maximum elevations at each of two opposing longitudinal thigh contours;

wherein the operative surface defines a plurality of latitudinal contours extending between the two opposing longitudinal edges, wherein the plurality of latitudinal contours defines a centrally disposed longitudinal concave portion;

an anorectal area of the operative surface, the anorectal area defined by the longitudinal concave portion between the first and second elevations, wherein the latitudinal and longitudinal concave portions are oriented perpendicular relative to each other so that the two opposing longitudinal thigh contours are configured to spread both thighs, respectively, of said human sitter while the latitudinal concave portion causes flexion of both hips of said human sitter simultaneously with said thigh spreading.

2. The seat of claim 1 , wherein the second elevation of each longitudinal contour is configured to urge a posterior thigh of the human sitter, causing flexion at an associated hip of the human sitter,

whereby the spread of both thighs and flexion of said hips of said human sitter urges the anorectal area against the spread anus of the human user.

3. The seat of claim 1 , further comprising:

a pocket disposed along the anorectal area; and

a temperature-adapted element retained in the pocket.

4. The seat of claim 1 , further comprising:

a temperature-adapted element integrated to the anorectal area.

5. A method of treating anorectal disorders, comprising:

administering a composition to an anorectal region of a human user; and

sitting the human user on the seat of claim 1 ,

whereby the two opposing longitudinal thigh contours spread both posterior thighs of the human user allowing associated buttocks and external hemorrhoids vessels to be in direct contact with the anorectal area.
