I've got this boil near my anus that's causing me a lot of trouble. It really hurts when I start to defecate and then it burns until I'm done. Sitting for long periods is also really uncomfortable. What could this be, and what should I do?

The symptoms you're describing suggest a perianal abscess or boil, which can be painful and uncomfortable; apply warm compresses to the area for 10-15 minutes, 3-4 times a day if the boil persists, worsens, or is accompanied by fever, increased redness, or pus, seek medical attention

I've had an anal fissure for about 8 months now with an 8mm mass near the front. It only hurts during bowel movements when my stool is hard, otherwise no pain at all, but there's a little pus at the site. Do I need surgery for this? If so, what are the side effects? Would lateral internal sphincterotomy (LIS) be recommended and what are its side effects?
Given the presence of an anal fissure for 8 months, a mass, pain during hard stools, and pus, surgery might be needed to address the chronic nature of the issue and potential infection. Lateral internal sphincterotomy (LIS) is a surgical option but it's crucial to discuss its risks and benefits with a doctor, including the possibility of sphincter incontinence.

My husband keeps getting a perianal abscess that drains every few weeks but keeps coming back. He also has a chronic fissure and some doctors think a fistula might have formed. Is surgery the only option for this and is laser treatment a good choice for fixing a fistula?
Yes, surgery is the only option.Fistulectomy is the gold standard procedure advised to the patient.
