I've been dealing with some discomfort and weight gain since my laparoscopic surgery for an inguinal hernia about 3.5 months ago. I often feel pain where the hernia was and sometimes there's this stretching sensation near the stitches. I'm really looking for some advice on how to lose this extra weight and I'm also curious about when these symptoms might ease up. What would you suggest?

I had fissure surgery 5 years ago and now there's a perianal abscess near my anus. The scan shows a small thick-walled abscess about 15x12mm at the 6 o'clock position, 13mm deep to the anal verge. No mass or deep issues in the rectum were found. Should I be worried about this abscess coming back after treatment? What are my options to prevent it from recurring?
Yes, there's a possibility that your perianal abscess could recur, especially if an anal fistula is present. Treatment usually involves incision and drainage, and sometimes surgery to address a fistula if present. Preventing recurrence involves good hygiene, preventing constipation, and potentially surgical intervention for fistula management
