The surgery wound from my perianal pus removal a month ago hasn't fully healed yet and there's a small bump on one side - could that be fat? I attached a picture, how much longer might it take to heal completely and what can I do to help it heal faster so I can get back to normal

Bump may be granulation or fat—keep clean, sitz baths, and recheck with surgeon if healing doesn’t progress.

My mom is 70 and has asthma but also gallstones. Is it safe for her to have surgery for the gallstones given her asthma condition? I'm really worried about the risks
It's understandable to be concerned about your mother's safety, especially with both asthma and gallstones. While asthma does increase the risk of complications during surgery, with proper planning and management, a cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) can be performed safely in elderly patients with asthma

I've been noticing some pus coming out of small openings on my back and my local GP mentioned it could be a pilonidal sinus, saying surgery might be the only option. I'm a bit worried is surgery really necessary or are there other treatments I could try first? What should I expect if I do need surgery?
Pilonidal sinus usually requires surgery for a cure; early cases might respond to hygiene and antibiotics but recurrence is common without surgery.
