I think I might have piles in the early stages and I'm wondering if laser surgery is the right option for me at this point or if there are other treatments I should consider first

For mild or early-stage piles, non-surgical treatments are usually recommended first, and laser surgery might be considered later if those don't work or if the piles are more severe. Laser treatment offers advantages like minimal pain and faster recovery compared to traditional surgery.

I'm a bit worried because I've got this painful lump on the left side of my anus. There's no redness or anything visible on the skin, but it's definitely there and it's been about a week now. It hurts when I sit, walk, or touch it. I'm not sure who to see about thisshould I consult a gynecologist, a physician, or maybe a gastric specialist? What do you think?

You may be experiencing a perianal abscess. I recommend you to see a physician for further evaluation and treatment. You may be prescribed antibiotics such as Augmentin 625mg to help with the infection. In some cases, surgical drainage may be necessary to treat the abscess effectively. It is important to seek medical attention promptly to prevent any complications.

I had perianal fistula surgery a year ago but still notice a small white sticky discharge from the surgery site. Could this mean the fistula is recurring? I'm trying to conceive will this affect my chances of getting pregnant or cause issues during pregnancy?

To guide you correctly, a thorough assessment is necessary.

I'm having some pretty bad anal pain that started a couple of days ago, and it came on out of nowhere. I noticed the area is a bit hard on one side, and it's really painful. It's making sitting and doing any tough tasks really difficult. Could you tell me what might be causing this and what I can do about it? I'm pretty uncomfortable and could really use some advice.

take rest & drink oral fluids.
