What is an Anal Fistula?

The abscess that forms near and around the anal mucosal tissues tends to grow and worsen gradually. Eventually, it creates an opening through the skin, forming an infected fistula between the skin and the anus. This is how an anal fistula develops.

Identify the Signs of Fistula

Development of anal abscesses

Discomfort during bowel movements

Pain & swelling of the region

Drainage of pus from the affected area

Chills, fever resulting in tiredness

Understand the Causes of Fistula

Most anal fistulas develop because of an infection that begins in an anal gland. This infection creates an abscess which either drains by itself or is surgically drained through the skin near the anus.

The risk factors that cause fistula include

An anal abscess that was drained before

Injury or ongoing pressure to the anal area

Conditions like Crohn's disease or other inflammatory bowel diseases

Infections in the anal area, including from STDs

Surgery or radiation used to treat anal cancer

Different kinds of Fistula

Three various kinds of fistula can form near the anus.

An anorectal fistula is a medical name for a fistula that forms between the anal canal and the skin around the anal opening.
A rectovaginal or anovaginal fistula is when a passage forms between the rectum or anus and the vagina.
Sometimes, a fistula can develop between the vagina and colon, and this is called a colovaginal fistula.

An enteroenteric fistula happens when there's a link formed between two parts of the intestine. Occasionally, a fistula can form between the skin and the small intestine or the skin and the colon. Here are a few signs of intestinal fistulas:

Pain or discomfort in the area between genitals and anus
Repeat occurrences of urinary tract infections
Intense diarrhoea or gas
Gas in the stomach, bladder, or intestines
Weight loss

A fistula could develop between the uterus and the bladder. Sometimes, an opening might form between the urethra and the vagina, or between the urinary bladder and the vagina. Signs of a urinary tract fistula include:

Uncomfortable urination
Needing to urinate often
Urine appearing cloudy and having a strong odour

What is the difference between piles, fissure and fistula?

Piles is a situation where tissues and blood vessels in the anal area, especially near the anal opening, become larger. Risk factors include constipation and multiple vaginal births. Symptoms of piles include blood in the stool, painful bowel movements, a painful lump around the anus that can be felt, mucus discharge from the anal area due to pus, itching, pain, and red skin nearby. A high-fibre diet and staying well-hydrated can aid in preventing piles. Surgery might be the most effective choice for full recovery. A fissure is a tear in the sensitive skin around the anus. Fissures can develop if you frequently pass hard stool, which cuts the skin in that area. Factors like Crohn's disease, pregnancy, constipation, straining during bowel movements, and sitting on the toilet for too long can also cause fissures. Symptoms of fissures include a tear near the anus, a small lump nearby, pain during bowel movements, noticing blood on the toilet paper, and feeling itching or burning in that area. To prevent fissures, make sure to drink enough water and maintain a balanced diet. Treatment options for fissures include open fissure surgery and laser sphincterotomy. Fistulas are openings that join an abscess with an infected gland. Anal fistulas can show up as signs such as soreness, redness, discharge of foul-smelling pus, and swelling around the anus. You might also experience bleeding, uncomfortable bowel movements, and fever. It's recommended to consult a doctor if you face these situations.

Benefits of Laser Fistula Surgery

Post-surgery Recovery Steps for Anal Fistula

Recovery Time for Anal Fistula Surgery

Laser fistula surgery: A laser is used to close the fistula, which is a minimal-pain procedure. A laser beam deteriorates the fistula's abnormal lining, eliminating any infection there as well. This helps the region of the fistula to recover. Almost all anal fistula cases can be successfully treated with this fistula surgery. Fistulotomy: Fistulotomy is the surgical procedure used most frequently to treat anal fistulas. This procedure opens the fistula and removes both the infected tissues and the entire tunnel lining (anal fistula), allowing it to heal internally. It recovers similarly to how a scar does. This treatment is relatively quick and very effective at treating fistulas.

Laser fistula surgery has several advantages over conventional fistula treatments. Some of the benefits include lesser cuts, and hence minimal blood loss and pain, quicker recovery, fewer hospitalisations and much lower chances of recurrence.

Following an anal fistula surgery, the healing process is easy and devoid of significant problems. You won't have any issues if you carefully adhere to the doctor's advice. Here are some suggestions to make your healing and recovery from anal fistula surgery easier:

Eat a diet rich in fiber
Do not lift large objects
Make use of a stool softener to help you have easy bowel movements
Remain hydrated. Every day, you should consume 8 to 10 glasses of water
Passing a stool without strain is advised

Everybody has a different healing capacity, so the recovery time following anal fistula surgery may vary.

Anal fistula open surgery recovery often lasts two to three months, while full laser fistula surgery recovery typically takes one to four weeks.
The patient must adhere to the fistula surgeon's recuperation instructions for at least one month following anal fistula surgery.
The patient should avoid performing any actions that create stress on the fistula surgery site.
The patient should limit their intake of fatty and spicy foods and stick to foods high in fibre.
The patient should regularly take sitz baths and keep the surgical area free of infection.
After two months, the patient would notice significant pain reduction from the fistula operation site.
The scars, however, might not go away for some time. Without experiencing any significant difficulties, the patient may return to their work and eating routines.
The patient would be pain-free following fistula surgery in three months.
At the surgical location, there wouldn't be any scars, and the incision would also be fully healed.

I was advised by my physician for a circumcision for hygienic reasons as well as certain urinary problems. I found out about Mykare Health from Instagram and at first I was a bit sceptical about approaching them as I have never before availed such consultancy services, especially for a medical purpose. Anyway, with a lot of reservations in mind, I decided to take the help of Mykare Health Team. From day one including scheduling the surgery, processing the insurance related paperworks, doctor's appointments etc to the day I got discharged, as well as the follow-up medical checkups later, I have to say the whole experience was totally overwhelming. Mykare representative Ms. Greashma did a commendable job in walking me through the entire journey and, at times, she even went above and beyond her call of duty to address our concerns in a very professional manner and thankfully the entire process was smooth and hassle-free, thanks to her unwavering commitment to the task at hand. Thank you Mykare Health Team for the amazing experience. Keep this going. Kudos. 👍
