I've been diagnosed with piles and have three hemorrhoids plus a fissure. My doctor recommended laser surgery but I'm worried about it coming back is surgery really necessary or can they shrink on their own over time?

Laser surgery can be an effective treatment option, but there's always a risk of recurrence, which is why understanding your individual situation and discussing it with your doctor is crucial. The Clinic at Beverly Hills explains that while laser surgery is effective, there's still a possibility of recurrence

View allhow long does it take to heal an anal fissure with surgery or other treatments i'm really worried about the recovery time and which option works faster
Anal fissure healing time varies, but complete healing can take 6-12 weeks with either medical or surgical treatments. Surgical options like lateral internal sphincterotomy can offer faster healing, potentially allowing some to return to work within a week or two. However, complete healing with surgery still takes about 6 weeks
