I've noticed a small bump or pimple right at the opening of my anus for the past couple of days, and it's quite painful and uncomfortable. I'm wondering if I need to see someone in the gastroenterology department or if there's another type of specialist I should consider. Any advice on what this might be and whom I should consult?

I've had a fistula for 8 years and my MRI shows it's 7mm long. Doctors recommended surgery but I switched to Ayurveda after hearing about recurring fistula cases. The Ayurvedic doctor says it's healing on its own and gave me oral meds and an oil to apply. The pus discharge has reduced but hasn't stopped completely. Will this actually heal fully without surgery or am I just delaying the inevitable?
kindly meet a general surgeon for examination

I've noticed a painful, swollen bump near my anus that feels like a pimple. It's really starting to bother me, especially when I press on it. Can you help me figure out what this might be and what I should do about it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a perianal abscess. I recommend you use an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to help prevent infection. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relief medication like ibuprofen to help with the pain and swelling. It is important to keep the area clean and dry. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
