I've been struggling with a fissure for over 20 years now and it's been really tough. I'm considering surgery, but I'm also open to other permanent solutions if there are any. What would you recommend? I'm based in Pune and would love some guidance.

View allI'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?
While some hemorrhoids might shrink on their own, having three hemorrhoids plus a fissure often requires more than just self-care. 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

I've had anal pain for the past two months and noticed a tear when I checked in the mirror some people said it might be an anal fissure. Three days ago, I saw a general surgeon but he didn't examine the area and just gave me pain meds for five days along with diet advice. I've been following the diet for a month and taking the meds for three days, but the pain hasn't stopped. How long does it usually take for this to heal, and is surgery the only option or can it be fixed with diet like fruits and veggies? Why hasn't it gotten better yet?
Anal fissures typically heal within 6-8 weeks with conservative treatment, and diet plays a significant role in this process. If the pain persists beyond this timeframe, it may indicate a chronic fissure that requires more aggressive treatment.

I'm having some pain when I poop, and I've noticed there's a mole or something that has popped up near my butt hole. It's not bleeding, but I'm worried. What could it be? Is this something I should be concerned about?
It sounds like you may have developed a hemorrhoid or a skin tag near the anal area. While it's not uncommon, I recommend seeing a doctor for an accurate diagnosis and to discuss potential treatment options, especially if the pain persists.
