I've noticed a small bump or pimple right at the opening of my anus for the past couple of days, and it's quite painful and uncomfortable. I'm wondering if I need to see someone in the gastroenterology department or if there's another type of specialist I should consider. Any advice on what this might be and whom I should consult?

View allI'm really worried about my piles. It's been 23 years since they first showed up, and lately, I've been having a lot of pain and irritation during and after going to the bathroom. It's so bad that I cant even stand properly for about 5 minutes, and it takes about 2 hours for the pain to go away. I've cut down on oily and spicy foods and drink plenty of water, but nothing seems to help. I tried Dobesil for a month, and it worked for a while, but then after about 3-4 months, the problem came back. I really need to know if theres a way to treat this with medicine at this stage, or maybe through homeopathy? Is it possible to manage or cure this completely?
Sounds like you are experiencing symptoms of hemorrhoids (piles). To help manage the pain and discomfort associated with hemorrhoids, you can try using over-the-counter medications such as Preparation H or Anusol. These medications help reduce inflammation, pain, and itching. You can also try sitz baths and keeping the anal area clean to help alleviate symptoms. For a more long-term solution, you may need to consult with a doctor to discuss prescription medications or procedures such as rubber band ligation or sclerotherapy.

It's understandable that you're looking for a reliable solution for your recurring fistula. While laser surgery is a viable option, the best approach for you will depend on the specific nature of your fistula and your individual health history. Consulting with a qualified colorectal surgeon is crucial to determine the most suitable treatment plan

my doctor said i need surgery for an anal fistula but i was wondering if homeopathy can help heal it without surgery
Small fistulas without an infection will often close on their own and may take 30–50 days. However, more severe fistulas that drain may cause infection in the surrounding skin and organs. If the drainage leads to sepsis, a doctor will usually recommend surgery to repair the areas of drainage.
