What is an Anal Fistula?
An anal fistula, also known as fistula in ano, is an abnormal connection between the anal canal and the surrounding skin. Commonly caused by an infection or abscess, the condition results in a tunnel that often leads to persistent drainage and discomfort. Patients may experience recurring pain, irritation, and even fever. Left untreated, an anal fistula can lead to complications, making early diagnosis and treatment essential.
Common Symptoms of Anal Fistulas
If you suspect an anal fistula, watch out for these symptoms:
- Persistent pain near the anus
- Swelling or redness around the anal area
- Discharge of pus or blood
- Foul-smelling drainage
- Difficulty sitting comfortably
- Fever or chills in severe cases
If you notice any of these signs, consult our specialists in Andheri West for a thorough evaluation.
