I noticed a small muscle-like bulge near my anal area but there's no bleeding. Could this be piles or an external hemorrhoid? Do I need surgery for this or are there other treatment options?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A small, muscle-like bulge near the anus without bleeding could be an external hemorrhoid, also known as piles. Hemorrhoids are swollen veins that can develop inside or outside the anus and rectum. While often harmless and may resolve on their own, it's important to consult a doctor for diagnosis and to rule out other potential causes, especially if you experience pain or bleeding

I've been dealing with a recurring fistula or abscess for the past two years it goes away for a few months but keeps coming back. I really don't want surgery, and while a recent round of antibiotics during dental treatment cleared it up temporarily, the issue returned. What could be causing this cycle, and are there other treatment options besides surgery?
fistulectomy is advised,sx opinion.

I've been dealing with piles for the last 10 years and even had surgery at Stop Piles. But now, I'm feeling the pain again. What should I do? Is there something else I can try to find relief?
The common reason for piles is constipation. It is among those who are involved in jobs that require sitting for long hours. People who do not indulge in any form of exercise and movement of the body are more vulnerable to piles.
