I've been dealing with a tough perianal abscess situation and had surgery twice for it already. I'm really worried it might come back. Are there any precautions I can take to stop it from recurring? My job involves sitting for nearly 10 hours daily, and although I loved eating non-veg food, I cut it out after my last surgery. I'm a 32-year-old guy. Any advice on what I should do or avoid?

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

I've been dealing with piles or fistula for the past month with a 12-inch muscle growth near my anus. There's a lot of itching, swelling, and mild pain. I've tried Ayurveda meds and followed a high-fiber diet with fruits, but the pain hasn't gone away. Now I'm using Himalaya Pilex ointment and tablets, but still no relief. I really don't want surgery what else can I do to manage this?

While the 12-inch muscle growth is concerning and requires professional evaluation, there are some things you can do to manage symptoms and prevent complications while awaiting a diagnosis and treatment plan:
