I've been dealing with complete rectal prolapse for over 10 years since I was young and now I'm 19. I'm scheduled for TRRPCS surgery but I'm not sure if it's the best option for me especially since I want to join the defense forces. Are there better surgical alternatives I should consider that would fit my active career goals?

TRRPCS is a good option for young patients with prolapse; however, rectopexy or laparoscopic procedures may offer better durability for physically demanding careers.

How can I treat the early stages of piles? Is it possible to cure them, and what steps can I take to get rid of this problem as soon as possible? I'd really appreciate some advice on this.

Initial-stage piles (hemorrhoids) can be cured with conservative treatments, such as increasing fiber intake, staying hydrated, exercising regularly, and practicing good bowel habits consider warm sitz baths, stool softeners, or laxatives to alleviate symptoms, but if symptoms persist or worsen, consult a proctologist or gastroenterologist for further guidance.

I was diagnosed with fistula in ano back in 2015 and had open surgery for it in June that year, but I'm still dealing with issues like itching, bleeding, and irritation around my anus. I also struggle with constant constipation. What could be causing these problems to persist even after surgery, and what can I do to finally get relief?

follow-up with the surgeon is advised to the patient.
