I've been dealing with a fistula in ano for about a week now and my doctor mentioned surgery might be the only option. Is there any alternative treatment or something else I can try before going for surgery? I'm a bit nervous about the procedure and recovery
Mild fistulas can be managed by Ksharasutra, VAAFT, or sitz baths. But most chronic cases need surgery. MRI fistulogram can help plan the best approach.

My ultrasound showed multiple 8mm gallstones and I've been dealing with constipation and belching. Do I need surgery for this? Also, if I don't get the surgery now, could it cause issues later if I get pregnant?
Yes, given your symptoms and the size of your gallstones (8mm), surgery may be recommended. Gallstones larger than 8mm can cause digestive issues and potentially lead to complications like bile duct obstruction. Delaying surgery could increase the risk of these complications, including potential problems during pregnancy.
