Is surgery the right decision for a fistula in the anal sphincter?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com. I have thoroughly gone through your case, attached reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity) and can well understand your genuine health concerns. You have normal thyroid profile means gland is working normal and no issue with it. Your complete blood count is fine meaning there is no issue with your blood. Kidneys are working normal. MRI is not normal. It shows a fistula and needs proper management as directed by your doctor. Your physician is right on a decision for surgery as there is a fistula in the sphincter of anus and is causing issues right now. If left untreated then it can damage the sphincter of the anus and that may lead to permanent loss of control on stools. It is very miserable condition that needs to be corrected in the first place right now. Please follow the instructions of your physician.
