In a Czech medical report, patient had anal fissure, had it removed but then area got infected, then after treatment improved, the above phrase appears in the following context:
"...zde palp. v konečníku je hmatná fissura, indigace pomalu lze, jinou patologii negmatám..."
I copied spellings exactly from text and I know some are incorrect.
Even if "indigace" is "indikace", which makes sense to me, I still don't understand the phrase and hope someone with more knowledge of this will be able to help. Thanks!

The reference is to Latin "digitus" for "finger"

: I did think of the "digit" of course, but there is also this: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/indagatio so like this it is plain and simple

Thank you, Hannah. So it could be also "slow examination", but given how it's done, both expressions would be right.

Comment: "Thanks, Jiří,
I used your suggestion in my translation. Later I read Hannah's suggestion -- they both are different ways of saying the same thing.
