I'm worried because I've had a lump in my bum area for three days now, and it's really painful. I'm struggling to sit down because of it. Could you help me understand what might be causing this? What should I do about it, and who would be the right type of doctor to consult?

View allCan piles at stage 3 be cured without surgery? I'm looking for ways to heal faster and need advice on medicines that can help manage symptoms better
While surgery is often recommended for stage 3 piles, it's not always the only solution. Non-surgical treatments like rubber band ligation, sclerotherapy, or electrotherapy can be effective, especially for internal hemorrhoids. These procedures work by reducing blood flow to the hemorrhoids, causing them to shrink. Additionally, addressing the underlying cause of the piles, such as constipation, with lifestyle changes like a high-fiber diet and adequate hydration, can help manage symptoms and prevent further progression

Is it possible for a fistula to come back just 20 days after surgery? I noticed a small pimple-like bump near the surgical wound and I'm worried it might be recurring
Unfortunately, despite proper treatment and complete healing, an abscess or a fistula can come back. If an abscess comes back, it suggests that perhaps there is a fistula that needs to be treated. If a fistula comes back, additional surgery will likely be required to treat the problem.

Just found out I have piles in the early stages and the surgeon said surgery isn't needed right now. Can early-stage piles be treated with medicines? Which type works best allopathic, ayurvedic, homeopathic, or unani? Would love some advice on what to try first.
Yes, early-stage piles can often be effectively treated with medications and home remedies before resorting to surgery. Your surgeon's recommendation to delay surgery is likely because early-stage piles (Grade 1 and 2) can often be managed with non-surgical options
