Anal Fistula
I had a laser surgery of Anal Fistula grade-l, 6 months ago but I still feel sensation and little pain at the affected area. On follow up check up with the surgeon prescribed antibiotics and pain killers initially and now adviced me to take me only seize bath and nothing else.. Seek advice for the complete cure or it is a normal to heal up slow in this case.

Do as your surgeon said, visit if any problem
Put a discharge summary so that what operation he/she had done, we can get an idea of that.
For now, do take seitz bath, laxatives, high fibre diet, water।
Avoid spicy foods
Use anal sphincter loosening oint cremagel L/fidonal/escot
Continue for 3 weeks then visit for rectal examination
