Had anal fistula surgery on 5th Oct 2020 and have a desk job. The wound isn't fully healed yet but there's no pain or discomfort. Is it okay to sit for long hours or resume work?

It is important that patients are able to rest for several days following the surgical procedure. During this time, they should allow their bodies to recover, and avoid sitting or walking for too long. Many people find it more comfortable to wear loose-fitting clothes during the recovery period.

View allI've been having pain in my lower abdomen and testicles, and English medicine doctors diagnosed it as reducible right inguinal hernia. They recommended clinical correlation, but I'm really scared of surgery. Is there any ayurvedic treatment that can cure hernia without needing an operation? I'm worried about the pain and want to explore non-surgical options.
While ayurvedic treatments can help manage the pain and discomfort associated with a reducible inguinal hernia, they are unlikely to cure the condition without surgery. Surgery is typically the primary treatment for inguinal hernias to prevent complications and ensure a complete repair. Ayurvedic approaches may provide symptom relief and support the body's healing process, but they are not a substitute for a surgical repair

I'm really worried about my mom as shes been diagnosed with a hernia. Who should we talk to for this, and is there any way to manage a hernia without having to go through surgery? Just trying to explore all options.
For a hernia problem, you should consult a General Surgeon. Surgery is the most effective treatment for hernias, but in some cases, a truss or supportive garment may be recommended to help manage the hernia without surgery. However, it is important to consult with a doctor to determine the best course of action based on the specific type and severity of the hernia.

I've been dealing with this persistent issue on my left hip. There was a wound with pus, and the abscess drained by itself at first, but then it came back. It's been going on for about three months now. Initially, a general medicine doctor treated it by cutting it open and removing the pus. It healed over 30 days, but the pus has started to form again. I'm really worried and not sure what to do next. Could you help me understand why this keeps happening and what my next steps should be?
Consider consulting a specialist, such as general surgeon, for further evaluation and treatment, as the recurring abscess may indicate an underlying issue, such as a fistula, infected cyst, or underlying bone infection, which may require antibiotics, surgical drainage, or other interventions
