I'm kind of worried because it's been a month since I had surgery for my anal fissure. They did both a fissurectomy and lateral internal sphincterotomy, but I'm still seeing blood sometimes when I poop. It seems to happen right at the end, just when I think I'm done. Do you think this bleeding could be related to piles? I'm a bit scared and would love some guidance on what might be going on.

I've been dealing with an anal fissure for the last three months, and in the past month, I've been using Smuth ointment after sitz baths and taking Cremaffin Plus at night. It seemed like things were getting better, with about 90% healed, but today I passed a hard stool and the tear happened again in the exact same spot. It's like history repeating itself, as it happened before in another direction but still in the same area. I'm really worried and wondering why this keeps occurring. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I should do?

It sounds like you are experiencing recurrent anal fissures despite the initial healing. To help prevent further tearing and promote healing, you can try using Anovate cream after each bowel movement and continue with sitz baths. Additionally, you can take a stool softener like Duphalac to prevent hard stools and reduce straining during bowel movements. Make sure to stay hydrated and include fiber-rich foods in your diet to help with bowel movements. If the issue persists, consult your doctor for further evaluation and management.

My husband keeps getting a perianal abscess that drains every few weeks but keeps coming back. He also has a chronic fissure and some doctors think a fistula might have formed. Is surgery the only option for this and is laser treatment a good choice for fixing a fistula?

Yes, surgery is the only option.Fistulectomy is the gold standard procedure advised to the patient.

I've noticed a small bump near the opening of my anus, and it's been causing some discomfort when I move, but the pain isn't too severe. A pharmacist recommended I take a Widemox 500 mg antibiotic. Should I be concerned about this bump? Do you think the antibiotic will help, or is there something else I should be doing? What's going on here?
