On 10th October 2022 I noticed thr was big lump and swollen and it was painful.. I went for clinic and was prescribed hemorrhoids tablets and cream..
And on 14th October 2022 night .. puss started to come out from the lump
I went immediately to hospital and took scan and after examining doctor told it's PERIANAL ABSCESS with ANAL FISTULA 1.7cm ×0.7cm
And doctor recommenda immediate

Don't worry, under anesthesia it should be done. And after surgery also medicines will continue.
