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 allMy brother has been dealing with a fistula in ano for two years now and refuses to get surgery because he's scared. There's sticky discharge and sometimes blood from the opening. Could this have turned into something more serious like cancer or a precancerous condition
It's understandable that your brother is hesitant about surgery, but it's crucial for him to understand that an anal fistula, which is a tunnel between the anus and the skin around it, rarely heals on its own and can lead to complications if left untreated. The sticky discharge and blood are signs of infection and inflammation, and further complications can include recurrent abscesses, fecal incontinence, and even, in rare cases, cancer.

Will surgery alone cure this condition or do I need other treatments too How serious is this and what else should I do to recover fully
If a DJ stent is retained since 2011, surgery is usually required to remove it; endoscopic procedures like ureteroscopy may be a less invasive option.
