Fistula in Ano
What is Fistula in Ano?
Fistula in Ano is an abnormal tunnel or tract that forms between the inside of the anal canal and the skin around the anus. It usually develops after an untreated or recurrent anal abscess (infection with pus collection).
At Dhuliyan Piles Clinic, we provide advanced and effective management of fistula using Ayurvedic Ksharsutra therapy and modern diagnostic support.
Causes of Fistula
Previous anal abscess
Chronic infection in anal glands
Recurrent boils near anus
Inflammatory bowel diseases
Trauma or previous surgery
Tuberculosis (rare cases)
Symptoms of Anal Fistula
Persistent discharge of pus or blood
Pain and swelling around the anus
Recurrent abscess formation
Itching and irritation
Foul-smelling discharge
Fever (in acute infection)
If left untreated, fistula may become complex and cause repeated infection.
Types of Fistula
Low Fistula – Simple tract, closer to skin surface
High Fistula – Deeper tract involving anal sphincter muscles
Simple Fistula – Single tract
Complex Fistula – Multiple tracts or branches
Proper diagnosis is essential before treatment.
Diagnosis at Dhuliyan Piles Clinic
Clinical examination
Digital rectal examination
Proctoscopy
When required: Ultrasound / MRI for complex fistula
Early and accurate diagnosis helps in preventing recurrence.
Advanced Treatment Options
Ksharsutra Therapy (Ayurvedic Gold Standard)
Ksharsutra is a medicated thread therapy described in classical Ayurveda. The medicated thread is placed inside the fistula tract, which gradually cuts, drains, and heals the tract naturally.
Benefits:
Minimal pain
No major surgery
Preserves sphincter muscle
Very low recurrence rate
Safe and effective
Cost-effective treatment
It is especially useful for both simple and complex fistula.
Laser Treatment
Laser-assisted fistula treatment is a minimally invasive modern procedure that helps in faster recovery and less bleeding.
Benefits:
Less bleeding
Short hospital stay
Quick recovery
Minimal scarring
However, recurrence rate may be higher in complex fistula compared to Ksharsutra in some cases.
