Its been a couple of days since I've noticed something like a pimple near my anus. It really hurts when I sit, and I figured it might be a pimple because theres some swelling. Do you think it could be something else, and what should I do about the pain? Any advice would be really helpful.

I've had a fistula for 8 years and my MRI shows it's 7mm long. Doctors recommended surgery but I switched to Ayurveda after hearing about recurring fistula cases. The Ayurvedic doctor says it's healing on its own and gave me oral meds and an oil to apply. The pus discharge has reduced but hasn't stopped completely. Will this actually heal fully without surgery or am I just delaying the inevitable?

kindly meet a general surgeon for examination
