An Anal fistula (also known as fistula-in-ano) is a small tunnel that can develop between anal canal and the skin near the anus often resulting from an untreated or inadequately treated perianal abscess. No medicinal treatment shows complete cure of anal fistula except few conditions like tubercular fistula. Early surgery, short & straight fistula tract and anal fistula treatment with ksharasutra give promising results with high rate of success.

Hi lybrate-user.
Actually it depends upon what type of surgery you r going to do. If only ksharsutra then it may take for 6 inches =15 cm tract. About more than 30 weeks. This can be reduced by using partial fistulectomy along with ksharsutra. But it is very difficult to evaluate the duration of treatment without examining the patient and taking other doctors opinion into consideration.

Anal fistula can not be treated by oral medicines only - homeopathic/ allopathic or ayurvedic. So usually, surgery is advised in anal fistula patients. But surgery is not the right choice for the reason of the recurrence of fistula after surgery and other complications like stool incontinence (inability to hold stool) etc. However, this problem can be completely treated without surgery by graded ksharsutra treatment. No hospitalization or bed rest is required in this treatment. You can continue ...more

क्षारसूत्र ट्रीटमेंट ही एक मात्र इलाज है जिससे फिस्टुला को पूरी तरह से ठीक किआ जा सकता है। क्षारसूत्र निकल जने के बाद भी pus और blood आना यह बताता है कि क्षारसूत्र से पुरे फिस्टुला ट्रैक को कवर नहीं किआ गया है। यही छूटा हुआ फिस्टुला ट्रैक दोबारा से activate हो रहा है। यदि फिस्टुला ट्रैक छूटा है तो इसमें दोबारा क्षारसूत्र ट्रीटमेंट करना होगा। इसमें सिर्फ खाने की दवाइयां कारगर नहीं होंगी। तो better होगा आप किसी experienced क्षारसूत्र विशेषज्ञ से कंसल्ट कर क्षारसूत्र ट्रीटमेंट करवाएं। sushruta ano ...more

फिस्टुला का क्षारसूत्र ही सबसे अच्छा इलाज होता है अगर आपका डॉक्टर ज्यादा अनुभवी नहीं है और क्षारसूत्र भी अच्छी क्वालिटी का नहीं है तो भी फिस्टुला ठीक से क्योर नहीं हो पता है,
