Is it normal to masturbate after having an anal fistula surgery? I'm kinda worried if it might interfere with my healing. It's been around 1.5 months since my operation and the wound isn't fully healed yet.

Masturbation after an anal fistula operation should be approached with caution, especially if the wound is not fully healed. Engaging in activities that put pressure on the area could delay healing or cause discomfort. Its best to consult with your doctor for personalized advice based on your recovery progress.

View allMy sister is 5 months pregnant and has piles fistula can she get laser surgery for it now? Will the laser treatment affect her pregnancy in any way?
some doctors recommend postponing laser surgery for piles and fistula until after delivery, others find it safe during pregnancy, especially in the second trimester. Laser surgery is generally considered safer than traditional surgery during pregnancy due to its lower risk of bleeding, infection, and other complications. However, it's crucial to consult with a specialist to determine the best course of action, considering the severity of the condition and the individual's medical history

My husband has been dealing with an anal issue for about 35 days now. He's really uncomfortable whether he's walking or sitting, and there are three lumps near his anus. We're living in different cities because of work so I'm worried. He says it's painful and that he's having regular bowel movements. He's also feeling a bit feverish and can't really concentrate at work. He's been doing warm compresses with Betadine twice a day, but since yesterday it's not helping either. What could be going on, and how can we help him feel better?
Immediate action required: 1. Wash the wound with soap and water. 2. Apply antibiotic ointment and cover with a bandage. 3. Seek medical attention within 24 hours for a tetanus shot and rabies post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). 4. Monitor your dog's behavior and health for the next 10 days. 5. Consult your veterinarian about vaccinating your dog as soon as possible. Precaution: Rabies risk is higher if your dog isn't vaccinated.

I have piles but no pain so far and my doctor recommended surgery should I consider it right away or try medication first to see if it helps
It's generally recommended to try less invasive treatments like medication before considering surgery for piles, even if your doctor recommended it. If you're not experiencing significant pain or complications, a course of medication might resolve the issue without the need for surgery. However, it's crucial to discuss your concerns and treatment options with your doctor to determine the best course of action for your specific case.
