The cost for fissure surgery in India, particularly in Bangalore, can vary considerably. Open fissure surgery typically ranges from ‚Çπ33,000 to ‚Çπ1,00,000. Laser surgery for anal fissures is another option, with costs around ‚Çπ75,000. Lateral internal sphincterotomy (LIS) can range from ‚Çπ80,000

Question

I'm dealing with a fistula issue that's been bothering me for the past year, and it's been draining pus continuously. I really need to find a good doctor who specializes in fistulas. Can you help me figure out what kind of treatment options might be available or suggest any tips for finding the right specialist? I'm pretty worried about this situation and would appreciate any advice you have.

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

Question

Hey, I've been dealing with a painful lump right on the outside of my anus for three days now. It's super sore when I touch it, but oddly enough, I don't really notice it when I go to the bathroom or throughout the day. I've been using Proctosedyl Cream, but it hasn't helped so far. Any idea what could be going on or what I should try next?
