I've had an anal fissure for a couple of years and currently manage it with a diet low in non-veg and more fruits like apples and guavas. Is surgery unavoidable in the long run? I really want to control it naturally what would you suggest?

While a naturally managed approach to anal fissures is great, surgery isn't always unavoidable and depends on the severity and duration of the fissure. A good diet, hydration, and regular exercise can often help, but chronic or non-responsive fissures might require further treatment, including surgery.

I've been diagnosed with GERD grade 3 reflux and I'm wondering if surgery is an option for me. I'm really concerned about post-op complications is there a way to avoid them or are there alternatives I should consider?
If your symptoms did not improve with lifestyle changes or drug therapy, you may be a candidate for surgery. Some patients prefer a surgical approach as an alternative to a lifetime of taking medications. The goal of surgery for reflux disease is to strengthen the anti-reflux barrier.
