I've been dealing with piles for the past 2 years and it's flared up again. I've seen many doctors, tried sithamaruthuvam, and taken various medicines but nothing has helped long-term. I even had piles surgery, but the problem persists. What else can I do and what kind of medicine should I take to finally get relief?

For persistent piles, advanced laser surgery, dietary changes, and medications like flavonoids can help. If you've already had surgery, consider a colorectal surgeon‚Äôs opinion to check for incomplete treatment or another condition like fissures.

my friend has an anal fistula and is really worried about treatment options is surgery the only way to fix this or are there other medical treatments that could help first

Anal fistulas usually need surgical correction like fistulotomy, though some early-stage cases may respond to fibrin glue or laser ablation.
