View allI 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've had an anal fistula for 13 years and tried both allopathy and homeopathy treatments. It gets better sometimes but keeps coming back. Should I consider surgery or is there any other medicine that might work better for this?
Fistulectomy is advised.

I noticed a small painful boil near my rectum opening and it's really uncomfortable. I've been constipated for a few days and think that might have caused it. I'm worried it could turn into a fistula but I really want to avoid surgery. Can this be treated with medicines or diet changes at this early stage? How can I manage it before it gets worse?
Physical examination needed for your case. Plz consult a surgeon
