Well it's a recurring fistula if you don't take care of it. Choice of Pathy is yours. I can only suggest mine. Surgery is an option here again. Other than that, lifestyle and diet modifications are required in your case. If you can do that. You won't need more surgeries.

Hello, I went through the details you shared. From your MRI report it looks like there is still a fistulous tract present in the perianal region, though the inflammation has reduced compared to the previous scan. Fistula-in-ano is a chronic condition, and unfortunately, medicines or leech therapy alone cannot usually cure it completely. They may give some temporary relief, but recurrence is very common if the underlying fistula tract is not treated. The standard and most reliable treatment for fistula is surgery. The choice depends on the exact anatomy of the tract, your symptoms, and your surgeon’s judgment. Since your MRI also shows endometrial thickening with cystic changes, I would strongly suggest you also consult a gynecologist for that part separately.
Next Steps
Please discuss once more with a colorectal surgeon. If you wish to try Ayurveda, you may consider it for supportive care, but do not delay proper surgical management too long, as repeated abscess formation can make things worse.

I understand your concern. Your MRI shows that the fistula is complex, which explains why the abscess keeps recurring. This type of fistula does not usually heal with ayurvedic or leech therapy, so it’s best not to delay proper treatment. Please continue with sitz baths to keep the area clean and take antibiotics if there is pus. In such cases, advanced minimally invasive options like laser (FiLAC) or VAAFT are safer and more effective than repeated conventional surgery. Also, your doctor may need to rule out conditions like Crohn’s disease or TB before final treatment.

It's a complex fistula. Don't be in a hurry to operate. There are multiple submucosal branches as seen on MRI. The Abcess recurs and is common in this case. Please avoid any unproven management protocols. In cases of such complex fistulas we need to rule out crohn's and TB. Kshar sutra will not be helpful as it is complex branching fistula.
Next Steps
continue Sitz bath and antibiotics will be required if active pus discharge is present
Health Tips
prefer minimally invasive methods of surgery like laser (FiLAC) for better results

Medication only gives you temporary relief so surgery is most important for permanent treatment . Also leech therapy can cause you infection or other problems . I strongly advised u for surgery because it is better option
