I just got a sonogram report showing two tracks in my anal fistula and I'm considering laser surgery how effective is this treatment and what should I expect during recovery

Laser surgery, specifically FiLAC (Fistula-Tract Laser Closure), offers a minimally invasive approach to treating anal fistulas and is generally considered effective, particularly for certain types of fistulas. Success rates vary, but generally range from 60% to 85%, depending on factors like fistula complexity and patient health. Recovery is typically quicker than with traditional surgery, with most patients returning to normal activities within a few weeks.

I recently had my fistula in ano heal about 15 days ago, but now there's a lump or bump inside my anus that hurts when I press hard. An ayurvedic doctor mentioned it might be from a fissure in ano surgery I had 5 years ago. Could this lump be related to that old surgery? What could be causing this pain now?

fistulotomy is the treatment of choice
