I recently noticed this hard lump around my rectum, and its got me really worried. I've heard about Anovate hemorroid cream and was wondering how effective it is in dealing with this kind of issue? Also, how should I use it to get the best results? Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

Anovate cream will help in reducing pain, itching, and inflammation associated with hemorrhoids. It will also help in shrinking the swollen tissues. However, if you feel a hard flesh over your rectum, it is important to have a proper examination by a doctor to rule out any other underlying conditions. Remember to maintain good hygiene, eat a high-fiber diet, and drink plenty of water to help with your condition.

I've been dealing with a fistula for years now and really want to avoid surgery if possible. Is there any permanent cure without going under the knife? The pain is constant, there's pus discharge, and the itching in that area is really bothering me. What can I do to treat this naturally?

Chronic fistula with pus and itching usually requires surgery for permanent cure.Natural or non-surgical treatments may offer temporary relief but often fail to close the tract completely.
