I've noticed this flesh-like growth outside my anus, and it's been really difficult and uncomfortable to deal with. Can it be cured? Blood is also coming from the area near the anus and the fleshy part. What could this be, and how can I get this resolved?

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?

I've been dealing with an anal fistula for around 4 years and have only tried homeopathic treatment so far but it hasn't worked. Is homeopathy still an option for me or should I consider surgery at this point?

Given that your anal fistula has persisted for 4 years without improvement, it‚Äôs unlikely to heal with homeopathy alone. Chronic fistulas typically require surgical intervention for definitive treatment. I recommend consulting a colorectal surgeon to discuss your options.

I've been dealing with really bad burning and itching around my anus along with bleeding. It's super painful when I pass stool, and the burning sensation lasts all day. Is it possible to treat piles completely without surgery? Can medications alone fix this for good? What should I do to heal it completely?

Piles can often be treated without surgery using diet, Sitz baths, and meds‚Äîavoid spicy food, stay hydrated, and use creams.
