Does fistula treatment hurt? How long does fistula treatment generally take?

An anal fistula is an abnormal connection between the lining on the inside of your anal canal (back passage) and the skin near your anus. Most anal fistulas are caused by an abscess (a collection of pus) which has developed in your anal canal.The pus can drain away onto the skin on its own or by an operation. A fistula happens when the track, made by the pus on the way to the surface of the skin, stays open. Surgery is usually necessary to treat an anal fistula as they do not heal by themselves. Surgery for an anal fistula is carried out under general anaesthetic, which means the patient does not feel any pain during the surgery. The surgery too can be completed in an hour, depending on the specialist who is operating on the patient. In many cases, it's not necessary to stay in hospital overnight afterwards. The most common type of surgery for anal fistulas is a fistulotomy. This involves cutting along the whole length of the fistula to open it up so it heals as a flat scar. A fistulotomy is the most effective treatment for many anal fistulas, although it's usually only suitable for fistulas that do not pass through much of the sphincter muscles, as the risk of incontinence is lowest in these cases. Patients can commence diet within 4 hours after surgery. Resumption of work can occur, typically in 2 -3 days after surgery. Consult professionals such as Dr. Mehli Nazir for a complete understanding of the fistula treatment procedure.
