I've been having pain in the anal area and lower backside for about a month now, especially during bowel movements. A BAMS doctor diagnosed it as internal piles. Is there a way to treat this without surgery? How long would it take to heal and are there any side effects to worry about?

Question

I'm experiencing this strange pain in my bottom when I sit for a long time. It really burns, but interestingly, when I stand, run, or sleep, the pain goes away. I don't feel any pain or see blood when I go to the toilet, although I am dealing with a little constipation. There's no blood or pus in my stool either. Some people are telling me it might be piles, others say it could be fissures or maybe even a fistula. I'm really confused and would appreciate some guidance on what this might be.

Question

I had a fistula surgery 8 months ago which went well but now I have a small fissure again. My surgeon checked with a finger test and just advised me to eat a balanced diet and keep my stool soft. My question is - is it okay if I only clean the outside after passing stool and not put my finger inside to clean like doctors do during the anal exam? I'm worried that inserting a finger might cause infection in the fissure and lead to another fistula
