Had piles surgery a week ago and feeling some relief but still seeing small blood drops when passing stools. What foods should I eat to heal faster and is it okay to have lemons in my diet now?

I've been dealing with an anal fistula for around 4 years and have only tried homeopathic treatment so far but it hasn't worked. Is homeopathy still an option for me or should I consider surgery at this point?

Given that your anal fistula has persisted for 4 years without improvement, it‚Äôs unlikely to heal with homeopathy alone. Chronic fistulas typically require surgical intervention for definitive treatment. I recommend consulting a colorectal surgeon to discuss your options.

I'm really worried about the side effects of surgery for an anal fissure. Homeopathy says it can be cured with just medicines, but I still have this thick skin layer outside my anus from a chronic fissure that's causing trouble. They strongly advise against surgery, but I'm not sure what to do. Is surgery really risky? What are the possible side effects? I'm scared to go through with it but the discomfort is getting hard to handle.

side-effects include pain,bleeding,infection and headache.
