i think i might have piles because theres a lot of pain near my anus and a small red bulge what treatments are available without surgery and if surgery is needed how long will the recovery take
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
If you suspect you have piles (hemorrhoids), several non-surgical treatments can be used to manage pain and swelling. These include home remedies, over-the-counter medications, and office-based procedures like rubber band ligation or sclerotherapy. If non-surgical treatments are not effective or if you have severe symptoms, surgery may be necessary, with a typical recovery time of two to four weeks

View allI'm dealing with multiple fistulas and they're really painful. I'm trying to figure out whether laser surgery or fistulotomy would be better in the long run. I've heard fistulotomy can be more of a permanent fix, but I'm really not sure about the laser option. Could you give me some advice on this? And also, how long after surgery until I can sit comfortably and get back to working at the office?
laser surgery is better for fistula

I had laser surgery for a fistula and am currently recovering. I've been using lignocaine, but today I noticed a small hump-like bump near my anus that doesn't hurt. What could this be? Will it go away on its own?
Observe for few days. It may go off
