Fistula Treatment in Pune

Advanced VAAFT and laser procedures for anal fistula with low recurrence and sphincter preservation.

What is Anal Fistula?

An anal fistula is an abnormal tunnel that forms between the inside of the anus and the skin near the anus. It usually develops as a result of a previous anal abscess.

Fistulas cause persistent discharge of pus, pain, and discomfort. They rarely heal on their own and typically require surgical treatment. The key challenge is treating the fistula while preserving the sphincter muscle.

Symptoms

Persistent or recurring discharge (pus/blood) near the anus
Pain and swelling around the anus
Skin irritation around the anus
Frequent anal abscesses
Fever (in case of active infection)
Pain during bowel movements
