For FISTULA kshara sutra is one of the proven treatment with good results but it takes a lot of time to heal the FISTULA...it requires multiple visits for tightening of the thread which loosens with time but will have better results at end
Next Steps
if you are not able to tolerate the pain visit the surgeon and go for fistulectomy which is equally good
