I had undergone kshar sutra & fissure tissue removal surgery 4 months ago. Now doc told that in the wound area there's a dot like thing more like beginning of fistula. Which is causing incomplete evacuation. I've undergone almost 4 anal surgeries. My body has become weak & lost lot of weight coz of those painful procedures. I really can't undergo another surgery for same. I have other probs & surgeries too.I have no bleeding or discharge.No much pain too. Is there any alternative way. Please suggest any non surgical cure 😭🙏

Since you have already undergone multiple surgeries, I understand your concern about undergoing another procedure. As there is no bleeding, discharge, or significant pain, we can first assess whether the small opening is actually a fistula or just healing/granulation tissue.
From an Ayurvedic perspective, we can initially focus on keeping the bowel soft, preventing constipation and straining, improving digestion and strength, and promoting local wound healing through appropriate medicines and diet.

I understand your concern, particularly after undergoing several anal procedures and experiencing significant weight loss and weakness. A small âdotâ in a previously operated wound does not by itself confirm that a fistula has formed. A fistula usually represents a tract connecting the anal canal to the skin, and the diagnosis is based on examination and, when necessary, imaging rather than appearance alone. Your absence of pus, bleeding and significant pain is reassuring, but the feeling of incomplete evacuation should also be assessed separately because it can occur from postoperative scarring, altered bowel habits or pelvic-floor/sphincter dysfunction and does not necessarily mean a fistula.
Next Steps
I would suggest a careful clinical evaluation to determine whether there is an actual fistulous tract or simply a postoperative healing change. If a fistula is confirmed, the appropriate approach depends on its type, location and involvement of the anal sphincter. In selected cases, conservative management and minimally invasive or sphincter-preserving approaches may be considered; therefore, another major surgery should not be decided upon merely from the appearance of a small opening.

Health Tips
Keep your bowel movements soft and regular, avoid straining and prolonged sitting on the toilet, and maintain adequate hydration and a balanced, nourishing diet to support recovery after your previous procedures. Warm sitz baths may be continued if they provide comfort. Avoid repeatedly touching, squeezing or probing the suspected opening. If you develop new swelling, increasing pain, fever, pus/discharge, foul-smelling drainage or difficulty passing stool, seek prompt medical evaluation. Given your history, the priority should be accurate diagnosis and conservative, sphincter-preserving management wherever appropriate, rather than automatically proceeding with another surgery. Thank you

âI understand your concern, especially after undergoing multiple painful procedures. Since you have no bleeding, discharge or significant pain, do not rush into another surgery without confirming whether there is an actual fistula. In recurrent or complex cases, a proper examination and imaging such as MRI may help define the problem. If an active fistula is confirmed, treatment depends on its type; some minimally invasive or sphincter-preserving options may be considered. Please consult me with your previous reports so I can guide you regarding the safest possible approach.â
