I've been dealing with fissures for 5 years and seen multiple doctors who say surgery is only needed if it grows bigger. But the pain and itching are constant and really affecting me. I recently saw an ad for laser treatment for fissures and piles could this be a solution for me? Or should I consider homeopathy or ayurveda instead?

Yes, laser surgery can be a good option for anal fissures, particularly for chronic or stubborn cases that don't respond well to conservative treatments. Laser surgery, specifically lateral internal sphincterotomy (LIS) with a laser, offers a minimally invasive approach with potential benefits like reduced pain, faster recovery, and lower risk of complications compared to traditional LIS.

View allIts 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.
U can use Anovate cream, lignocaine jelly for local application for 2 weeks, sitz bath is also advised, if any side -effects dermat opinion is advised

I've got this boil near my anus that's causing me a lot of trouble. It really hurts when I start to defecate and then it burns until I'm done. Sitting for long periods is also really uncomfortable. What could this be, and what should I do?
The symptoms you're describing suggest a perianal abscess or boil, which can be painful and uncomfortable; apply warm compresses to the area for 10-15 minutes, 3-4 times a day if the boil persists, worsens, or is accompanied by fever, increased redness, or pus, seek medical attention
