Anal Fistula Treatment

AnAnal Fistula is an abnormal connection between the inside of the anus and the skin around the anus. It is caused by a tear in the lining of the anus that does not heal properly. This can lead to a tract of infected tissue that forms between the anus and the skin.

Anal fistulas can cause a number of symptoms, including:

• Pain
• Itching
• Bleeding
• Discharge
• Drainage
• Lump around the anus.

If you have any of these symptoms, it is important to see a doctor. The treatment for an anal fistula will depend on the severity of the fistula and your individual circumstances. There are several different treatment options available, including:

• Antibiotics.  If the fistula is infected, antibiotics may be prescribed to clear up the infection.
• Surgical drainage. If the fistula is draining, it may be necessary to drain the fistula to relieve the pressure and pain.
• Fistulotomy. Fistulotomy is a surgical procedure in which the fistula tract is opened, and the two ends of the tract are sewn together. This is the most common treatment for anal fistulas.
• Seton placement. A seton is a small piece of thread that is placed through the fistula tract. The seton helps to keep the fistula open and allows it to heal from the inside out.
