Question 1

I've been dealing with piles and a fistula for a few days now and it's really painful. There's trouble passing stool and sometimes blood comes out too. I'm not sure what to do is there any way to treat this permanently without surgery? The pain is getting hard to handle.

Accepted Answer

Whether surgery is needed depends on the exact diagnosis, size, and severity of the condition. Some cases can be managed without surgery, while others may require it for effective treatment. A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

Question 2

I had a sentinel skin tag removed surgically but my doctor didn't treat the anal fissure causing it. Now I'm worried the skin tag might come back or get worse. How do I handle this chronic fissure to prevent more issues?

Accepted Answer

If a sentinel pile is present, it too may be removed to promote healing of the fissure. This may be combined with either injection with Botox or sphincterotomy.

Question 3

I've been dealing with thrombosed external hemorrhoids and really want to avoid surgery if possible. Are there effective home remedies to treat them when they're still at a normal stage? What can I do at home to help them heal faster?

Accepted Answer

To manage thrombosed external hemorrhoids without resorting to surgery, focus on pain relief and inflammation reduction through home remedies. These include applying ice packs, using topical creams or ointments, and taking over-the-counter pain relievers. Also, try gentle sitz baths and lifestyle changes like increasing fiber and staying hydrated
