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.

I have a fistula in ano and my doctor recommended surgery but I'm really hoping to avoid going under the knife if possible Are there any non-surgical treatments that could work for this condition

Fistula in ano typically requires surgery for complete cure, as non-surgical treatments have a high risk of recurrence or inadequate healing. In some early or low-risk cases, treatments like antibiotics, sitz baths, or fibrin glue may help temporarily, but they rarely offer a permanent solution. It's best to follow your surgeon's advice for long-term relief.
