I've been dealing with this really uncomfortable pain and burning sensation in my anus for the last couple of months. At first, there was some blood too, so I thought it might just be a small cut or something and I tried using Boroline on it. The bleeding stopped, which is good, but the pain and burning are still there, mostly when I'm using the toilet. Could you please give me some advice on how to make this go away?

It sounds like you might be dealing with an anal fissure, which is common and causes pain, burning, and sometimes bleeding. It's important to keep the area clean and avoid straining during bowel movements. You could also try using a stool softener, warm sitz baths, and apply a soothing ointment like Anusol or Hydrocortisone cream. If the pain persists, its best to see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm just wondering if it's okay for someone who recently had an open surgery for piles to eat foods cooked in mustard oil. Also, what are the foods, especially vegetables and fruits, and drinks she should avoid after this surgery? Any home remedies that could help her with the recovery? And is there a way to treat piles permanently without having to go through surgery again?
