Had my second fistula surgery. This is so painful. I don’t wish this on my worst enemy. Came to the conclusion that I have to completely change my diet

[ladyhaiti]

Honestly as person who has chronic anal fissure it took me sometime and lots of exacerbating pain…. After seeing my specialist and being prescribed ointments…. I had to change my diet completely and increase my water consumption…. To be honest I have lapses at times when I deviate from my diet and/ or have extreme stress… with prayer, meditation, therapy, diet change, basically lifestyle change has contributed to me not getting surgery….. I do pray that anyone that has the surgery I pray healing is optimal

I'd love to know what the actual, real percentage of 100% successful fistula surgery is.

[sb.]

1- Pain Worsening / Not getting better
2- Lots of puss
3- New lumps and bumps
4- Hard bumps that won't go away
5- Holes in your skin

I had this surgery in April. I ended up in ER 3 days later. I ended up with a blockage, which then prompted an enema, which the caused an external hemorroid. The kicker? I got my bill and I was being charged for not only the fistulotomy, but a hemorrhoidectomy! I called an said I was being charged for something that I didn’t have. I got a call back and they said he did remove the hemorrhoids! I had no idea he was going to do that. He told me months earlier that would be a 2nd separate surgery. I was in pain for over a month. Finally feeling better now.

To all who had the surgery please don’t take too many painkillers as it causes constipation

I've had my Fistula surgery 5 days ago the first 2 days were not too bad but once my pain medication ran out I wasn't quite a bit of discomfort I went to the er Yesterday and receive more pain medication as well as stool softener I'm going to see my surgeon tomorrow I've also started using extra strength hemorrhoid cream . It seems to be helping. I see my surgeon tomorrow afternoon ill update you guys tomorrow. Thanks Doctor theses video's have be a big help in Educating me about what is happening to me. I don't feel as alone . God bless you

I don't wish this procedure for anyone. The pain is unbelievable, I felt like I was going to vomit because of pain. NEVER AGAIN! Eat right mate!!!

I'm now on my 6th day of recovery from anal fistula surgery, I have a scheduled weekly checks with my surgeon. I'm taking 2 anti biotics (2x/d and 3x/d) and one pain reliever (taken when pain is untolerable).. my diet includes more liquids, high fiber foods and taking laxative to ease with bowel movement.

I can no longer feel the pain and the open wound is getting better. Also, I can now sit comfortably, the only problem is I'm still seeing discharge on my pads that looks like a pus. I read somewhere that it could be coming from the open wound which likely a liquid coat rather than a pus. I hope this heals 100% and no longer suffer with fistula again 🙏

I truly appreciate your content Dr Chang, you are not just educating but building this global community who are wanting to learn more from this illness.

Hi everyone, for all of you suffering from this i hope you get well soon. I just want to share my experience with my fistula. Its all about diet, and fibers. If you cant stick to a healthy diet, start taking psyllium husk. I took that everyday until my fistula closed alone internally. I only have an external opening now which is super clean, they call it incomplete/blind fistula. No more leaking. Psyllium husk is the answer give it a try ❤

I'm having my first of what will likely be 2 fistula surgeries (according to surgeon) next Thursday. Kind of terrified, but also really sick of my ass leaking. And apparently, the incision and drainage I had in early July didn't completely get the abscess out, so I have a fistula and still have a small abscess. Also, just started the antibiotic Augmentin, and I have a suspicion that was what caused my blood clot, and eventual pulmonary embolism around New Year's last year. This has not been a fun year.

This is such a nightmare. We are all just guinea pigs. I've had holes and setons for 4 years and theres just no end in sight. Nothing reassuring about any of it. We are scarred up and hacked up and its just so sad. Our quality of life is completely minimized. How are we supposed to function in society...

[joedirt]

Just had mines done yesterday. Day 1! Get it done and don’t live with it!

I had my surgery 4 weeks ago. I haven't had any major problems. I changed my diet and take stool softeners. I drink water all day. My doctor said the other day I am doing good. I can go to work in 2 more weeks.

[brendasiebert]

Please address rectal prolapse along with fecal incontenance. Need your take on this issue

I am up in Calgary Alberta Canada. I have a wonderful very dedicated surgeon. However I’d like to get your opinion on a couple of things if you have time please. I have a very very complex horseshoe fistula I seem to be having a surgery almost every 6 to 8 weeks. My surgeon is asking me to think about and research a stoma. I know it’s a big surgery, my question is, what are your thoughts on the fistulas ultimately closing and drawing up and going away so I do not have any drainage or smell… Or the chance of recurrence of new fistula after stoma surgery. I know there’s no guarantees. I’m just wondering if there’s not much chance of it going away, I am wondering why I would do the stoma surgery I don’t have two places in my body that are painful or potentially at risk for infection and smell. Thank you in advance for your anything you can contribute to me making an informed decision. I’ve had 13 surgeries and on 21 December I’m having a minor one, But it has travelled from one side to the other and it just keeps finding new tracks. Merry Christmas to me, right! Thank you so much doctor.

I had surgery on monday where they fixed two fistulas. Found this video and saw your located across from where i went to jr high, small world 😂

[maryhenney]

I am on my 2nd surgery. I'm 2 days post op. So far so good.. much more blood with this surgery but it seems to have calmed down. Using thr bathroom thr 1st time was scary

Inulin powder supplements? Yes or no? Easier to add to the diet than psyllium but causes lots of gas.
