I've been having a burning sensation around my anus during bowel movements. A BAMS doctor suggested surgery but I'm not sure I want to go through with it. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? What could be causing this issue?

A burning sensation during bowel movements can be caused by several factors, including hemorrhoids, anal fissures, infections, or even dietary irritants.
