I've had a fistula for 8 years and my MRI shows it's 7mm long. Doctors recommended surgery but I switched to Ayurveda after hearing about recurring fistula cases. The Ayurvedic doctor says it's healing on its own and gave me oral meds and an oil to apply. The pus discharge has reduced but hasn't stopped completely. Will this actually heal fully without surgery or am I just delaying the inevitable?

View allI had surgery to remove three hemorrhoids about a week ago and have been resting, but I've noticed some dry mucus leaking with a bad smell. Is this normal after the procedure, and what can I do to stop it?
While some discharge after hemorrhoid surgery is expected, dry, smelly mucus leaking could indicate a potential complication like infection. It's important to consult your surgeon as soon as possible to rule out complications and receive appropriate treatment.

I've noticed this small bump under the skin near my anus recently. It's about the size of a pea and doesn't really seem discolored. I started feeling it a couple of days ago because it gets uncomfortable when I tighten around there. It doesn't hurt, just kind of feels off. I even took a picture just in case, but I'm not sure what it is. Also, no bloody stool or anything like that. Could you help me figure out what's going on?
A small, pea-sized bump near the anus can be a perianal hematoma, an anal skin tag, or a small external hemorrhoid, but it's essential to consult a surgeon
