I'm a 61-year-old man with uncontrolled diabetes for the past 10 years and was recently diagnosed with piles and fistula. My doctor recommended surgery but I'm worried about complications due to my high blood sugar levels. Are there any effective non-surgical treatment options I could explore for this condition
