I'm dealing with this boil near my anus, and I think it might be from a hair breaking. It's really painful and makes it hard for me to walk, sit, or even use the bathroom comfortably. Can you suggest any remedies to get rid of it for good? I'm hoping for something that can help permanently.

My wife sometimes bleeds when passing stool and has skin tears on three sides of her anus, making it really painful to sit on a bike or the floor. We've tried everything is surgery the only solution left?

Persistent fissures with multiple tears may need surgery; check with a colorectal surgeon if conservative measures fail.

I've been dealing with a fissure for the last two months and consulted both a colorectal surgeon and a gastrointestinal surgeon. They said it can be managed with diet changes, but that's only a temporary fix both recommended surgery for a permanent solution, which I don't want to do. Is homeopathy or Ayurveda a good option for long-term relief?

To remove fissures permanently, surgery is generally the most effective option, especially for chronic or non-healing fissures. A procedure called Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS) is often performed to relax the anal sphincter muscle and allow the fissure to heal.

I've been dealing with a tough perianal abscess situation and had surgery twice for it already. I'm really worried it might come back. Are there any precautions I can take to stop it from recurring? My job involves sitting for nearly 10 hours daily, and although I loved eating non-veg food, I cut it out after my last surgery. I'm a 32-year-old guy. Any advice on what I should do or avoid?

Surgeon opinion is advised to the patient.
