I've been dealing with thrombosed piles for about 15 days and also have 1st grade piles. Doctors recommended surgery but I'm wondering if there are any medications that could help instead

While surgery might be recommended for thrombosed hemorrhoids and first-degree piles, several non-surgical options, including medications, can help manage symptoms and potentially resolve the issue without surgery. Thrombosed hemorrhoids often resolve on their own within a few weeks.

I've noticed a soft, painless lump near my anus that's grown bigger over the last few months. Also, I've had a couple of small boils on my scrotum for years now, though they don't bother me. Should I be worried about these? If so, which doctor should I see, and is surgery usually needed for something like this?

A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

I recently had my fistula in ano heal about 15 days ago, but now there's a lump or bump inside my anus that hurts when I press hard. An ayurvedic doctor mentioned it might be from a fissure in ano surgery I had 5 years ago. Could this lump be related to that old surgery? What could be causing this pain now?

fistulotomy is the treatment of choice
