Question 1

I'm just wondering if it's okay for someone who recently had an open surgery for piles to eat foods cooked in mustard oil. Also, what are the foods, especially vegetables and fruits, and drinks she should avoid after this surgery? Any home remedies that could help her with the recovery? And is there a way to treat piles permanently without having to go through surgery again?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a patient who has undergone open surgery for piles can consume mustard oil in moderation, as it does not directly affect recovery. To aid healing, she should avoid spicy, fried, and processed foods, as well as alcohol. Focus on a high-fiber diet with fruits like papaya and vegetables, stay hydrated, and avoid constipation by drinking plenty of water. For prevention without surgery, maintain a high-fiber diet, regular exercise, and avoid prolonged straining during bowel movements.

Question 3

I had a fistulectomy surgery three months ago and everything seems fully healed now, but I'm wondering about the proper way to clean the anal area during stool passing do you need to insert a finger inside to clean it? Just wanted to check what's safe post-surgery

Accepted Answer

After fistulectomy, gentle cleaning with water is sufficient. No need to insert fingers unless advised. Maintain hygiene to prevent recurrence.

I've got this 12-inch soft skin lump hanging around the wrinkle part of my anus, and it's been there for over a year. It's flesh-colored and hasn't caused me any discomfort at all. I'm just wondering, will this lump eventually go away on its own, or is it likely to just stick around?
