I'm using lignocaine 2 jelly for my anal fissure or piles like the doctor recommended. I'm a bit worried and curious about any side effects. Could this cause any problems I should be aware of while using it?

Lignocaine 2% jelly is generally safe for short-term use to relieve pain from an anal fissure or piles. However, overuse or prolonged application may cause skin irritation, numbness, or allergic reactions in some people. If you experience any unusual symptoms, it's best to consult your doctor.

I have anal fistulas that itch but don't hurt and I'm really scared of surgery. Can homeopathy cure them completely and how much would the treatment cost roughly

Is laser surgery risky or should I consider other options first?
