I have a perineal abscess and the pain is really bad near it, is there any way to treat it without surgery
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A perineal abscess often requires drainage to relieve pain and prevent worsening infection. In some early or mild cases, antibiotics and warm sitz baths may help temporarily, but surgery (incision and drainage) is usually the definitive treatment. Please consult a doctor promptly to avoid complications.

View allFound a 1.5 cm gallstone stuck in my gallbladder neck are there any ways to treat it without getting surgery? I'm really hoping to avoid an operation if possible. What are my options?
A 1.5 cm gallstone stuck in the gallbladder neck can cause pain and complications like cholecystitis. Unfortunately, non-surgical options like medications (e.g., ursodeoxycholic acid) are often ineffective for stones this size or location. Surgery (laparoscopic cholecystectomy) is the most definitive and safe treatment.

Incisional hernias after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery (lap chole) are not very common, but they can occur. The risk is estimated to be between 0.02% to 3.6%. Symptoms usually show up within three to six months after surgery, but can appear later as well.

I'm dealing with this pilonidal sinus for a couple of months now, and I'm not really sure if I should see a doctor or just go to a skin care clinic for treatment. I'm also really worried about how much it's all going to cost in total. Any advice would be super helpful!
