My sister is 5 months pregnant and has piles fistula can she get laser surgery for it now? Will the laser treatment affect her pregnancy in any way?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
some doctors recommend postponing laser surgery for piles and fistula until after delivery, others find it safe during pregnancy, especially in the second trimester. Laser surgery is generally considered safer than traditional surgery during pregnancy due to its lower risk of bleeding, infection, and other complications. However, it's crucial to consult with a specialist to determine the best course of action, considering the severity of the condition and the individual's medical history

I've had an anal fissure with a sentinel tag since December 2018. It improves with treatment but flares up again as soon as I stop meds. Doctors say surgery is the only fix, but I really want to avoid that. Are there any other options that could help long-term without needing an operation?
surgery opinion is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with this small lump about the size of a pea near my anus for months. After I have a bowel movement, it gets bigger and really painful, and I'm also dealing with constipation. I've seen a couple of doctors, and one said it's an anal abscess and gave me meds, but there's been no change. Another doctor gave me different meds that were supposed to be more effective, but no luck there either. I did some reading online and found information on hemorrhoids, so now I'm not sure if it's an anal abscess or hemorrhoids. I read abscesses can be caused by anal sex, but I've never had anal intercourse. I'm really confused and could use some advice on what this might be. Can you help me figure it out?
If it was abscess, then it should have been investigated further. Many times, abscess require surgical drainage. I would suggest you get it checked out by a general surgeon in person for further evaluation and management.
