Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have been suffering from anal blood discharge for the past four months. But I did not take it seriously as I had been traveling. Today I consulted a surgeon and after checking he advised me to go for surgery as he discovered a fistula. Can you recommend me the Ayurvedic procedure of cure as I do not want to go with the surgery. I have read on your website that with surgery there is a chance of recurrence. How long does it take for the cure? What would be the process of therapy?

Answered by Dr. Alka

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I just read your query. As you do not want to undergo surgery, in Ayurveda, the Kshar sutra procedure is performed for the fistula in the anus. It is a procedure where a medicated thread is bound at your fistula site and after some days your treating physician will change it. Ultimately this thread will cut down the fistula tract as well as will also help in its healing. Along with this, your doctor may also prescribe you some medicines and you have to take treatment for avoiding constipation also. According to the condition of your fistula, he will let you know how long you have to bind this thread. Usually, two to four weeks is the time period but time may vary according to patient to patient. It is a cost-effective treatment with minimal side effects and minimal chances of reoccurrence. You can know more about it from a nearby Ayurvedic hospital or Ayurvedic physician who performs this procedure.

Patient's Query

Thank you doctor,

Is the procedure painful? Do we need to get admitted to some hospital for this?

Answered by Dr. Alka

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

The procedure is not too painful. However, some physicians also use local anesthesia while performing it, as a result, the area becomes numb and you can not feel the pain till the procedure ends. In local anesthesia, an injection is given at the site of the procedure. Usually, it is a day care procedure and after performing the procedure you can get discharged in the evening, but sometimes if the patient has some issue then he has to stay for a day in the hospital.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
