I had perianal fistula surgery a year ago but still notice a small white sticky discharge from the surgery site. Could this mean the fistula is recurring? I'm trying to conceive will this affect my chances of getting pregnant or cause issues during pregnancy?

Question

I'm really scared about getting surgery for my fissures and piles, what if my blood pressure shoots up before the operation? How do I know if the doctor will go ahead with the surgery or not, I'm so anxious about this

Question

I've had anal fissures for about 3 months now and my gastroenterologist recommended sucralfate ointment. But now I feel like there's a muscle-like fissure near my anus and the doctor is suggesting surgery with a one-day hospital stay. Is surgery really the only option here? Are there any other treatments that could work? I've heard about Ayurvedic treatments would those be a better choice for healing this?

Question

I've been dealing with piles and I'm just 25. What's really concerning me is that I can actually feel something outside coming from inside when I'm washing the anus. It's just right near the opening. Can you suggest any medicine that might help?
