Anal Fistula (Fistula in Ano)

An anal fistula is an abnormal tunnel forming between the anus and skin, typically after an abscess. It may require surgery to remove the fistula and prevent recurrence.

Piles, or hemorrhoids, are swollen blood vessels in the rectum causing pain and bleeding. Depending on severity, treatments range from lifestyle changes to surgical procedures.
