My husband has been dealing with a high anal fistula for two years and we just got an MRI fistulogram done. The report suggests seton treatment but I've heard it can take around 8 months and might be painful. Another doctor mentioned surgery could lead to motion incontinence. Is seton the only option or are there other treatments we can explore for his condition? I'm really worried about the long recovery time.
