I've been reading about rectal prolapse and saw something about contradictions for surgery does that mean surgery isn't an option for a complete prolapse? I'm worried because my symptoms are getting worse and I'm not sure what to do next

View allI recently noticed this hard lump around my rectum, and its got me really worried. I've heard about Anovate hemorroid cream and was wondering how effective it is in dealing with this kind of issue? Also, how should I use it to get the best results? Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.
Anovate cream will help in reducing pain, itching, and inflammation associated with hemorrhoids. It will also help in shrinking the swollen tissues. However, if you feel a hard flesh over your rectum, it is important to have a proper examination by a doctor to rule out any other underlying conditions. Remember to maintain good hygiene, eat a high-fiber diet, and drink plenty of water to help with your condition.

I've had an anal fissure for about 8 months now with an 8mm mass near the front. It only hurts during bowel movements when my stool is hard, otherwise no pain at all, but there's a little pus at the site. Do I need surgery for this? If so, what are the side effects? Would lateral internal sphincterotomy (LIS) be recommended and what are its side effects?
Given the presence of an anal fissure for 8 months, a mass, pain during hard stools, and pus, surgery might be needed to address the chronic nature of the issue and potential infection. Lateral internal sphincterotomy (LIS) is a surgical option but it's crucial to discuss its risks and benefits with a doctor, including the possibility of sphincter incontinence.

Which type of anesthesia is used for laser fissure surgery general or local? I'm a bit nervous about the procedure and want to know what to expect in terms of pain and recovery
Laser surgery for anal fissures typically uses local anesthesia. This means the area around the anus is numbed, and you can remain awake during the procedure. General anesthesia might be considered in some cases, like complex situations or if you're anxious. Laser surgery is generally less painful than traditional surgery and offers a faster recovery
