I have stage L4 piles and a leading hospital in Chennai recommended surgery. Is normal surgery the better option or should I go for the HAL procedure? Are there still any non-surgical treatments I can try at this stage?

I had fissure surgery last month but now I'm dealing with anal fistula pus discharge and an abscess. It's been going on for almost 9 months. Is there any homeopathy or ayurvedic medicine that can fully treat this? I'm based in Mumbai and looking for options.

how long does it take to heal an anal fissure with surgery or other treatments i'm really worried about the recovery time and which option works faster

Anal fissure healing time varies, but complete healing can take 6-12 weeks with either medical or surgical treatments. Surgical options like lateral internal sphincterotomy can offer faster healing, potentially allowing some to return to work within a week or two. However, complete healing with surgery still takes about 6 weeks

I've been dealing with piles that have gotten pretty long and keep coming out of my anus - can this be treated with medications or do I definitely need surgery

Prolapsed piles that protrude often need surgical treatment;large symptomatic ones rarely resolve fully with conservative care.
