Which type of anesthesia is used for laser fissure surgery general or local? I'm a bit nervous about the procedure and want to know what to expect in terms of pain and recovery
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Laser surgery for anal fissures typically uses local anesthesia. This means the area around the anus is numbed, and you can remain awake during the procedure. General anesthesia might be considered in some cases, like complex situations or if you're anxious. Laser surgery is generally less painful than traditional surgery and offers a faster recovery

View allI'm using lignocaine 2 jelly for my anal fissure or piles like the doctor recommended. I'm a bit worried and curious about any side effects. Could this cause any problems I should be aware of while using it?
Lignocaine 2% jelly is generally safe for short-term use to relieve pain from an anal fissure or piles. However, overuse or prolonged application may cause skin irritation, numbness, or allergic reactions in some people. If you experience any unusual symptoms, it's best to consult your doctor.

I'm 21 and dealing with external piles. I haven't been able to talk to my family about it because it's embarrassing, and now they're interfering with getting a government job. It's been about 6 months since I've had any symptoms like bleeding, pain, or itching, but the lump around my anal area still isn't going away. I do get constipated now and then. What should I do about this, and how can I get rid of the lumps?

I've been dealing with piles and fissures for about a year now and medicines haven't helped much. I'm 25 and really worried should I consider surgery at this point? What would you recommend for my situation?
I can understand your concern. Surgery is the better option.,it won't shrink on its own. You can use pilex ointment for local application.
