Will fistula surgery affect my sex life in the long run I'm 25 and scheduled for the procedure but worried if things will go back to normal after recovery or if there will be any changes

Fistula surgery typically doesn't affect sexual function. Full recovery may take weeks, but most resume normal life without issues.

I've been dealing with a recurring fistula or abscess for the past two years it goes away for a few months but keeps coming back. I really don't want surgery, and while a recent round of antibiotics during dental treatment cleared it up temporarily, the issue returned. What could be causing this cycle, and are there other treatment options besides surgery?

fistulectomy is advised,sx opinion.

I've noticed a lump or bump that's been growing near my anus for a few months now, and it's starting to ooze a yellowish fluid. It's worrying me a bit, and I'm curious about what this could be. Could it be something serious, or is it possible for it to just go away on its own? What should I do next?

That could be pilonidal sinus ,without any further delay visit General Surgeon for appropriate management
