An anal fistula is an abnormal tunnel between the anal canal and the skin near the anus. Signs of an anal fistula may include recurring pus-like or bloody discharge, persistent moisture and skin irritation, as well as pain or swelling.
Patients cannot reliably diagnose an anal fistula themselves, so the diagnosis must be confirmed by a proctologist during an examination. In most cases, surgical treatment is required.
An anal fistula most commonly develops after an abscess (a collection of pus caused by infection) in the anal area. Various factors may contribute to the development of an abscess, including chronic constipation or diarrhea, anal fissures, injuries to the anal area, a weakened immune system, and other medical conditions.
Signs of an anal fistula may include recurring pus-like or bloody discharge, persistent moisture unrelated to bowel movements, skin irritation, swelling or redness around the anus, as well as pain or swelling in the surrounding area.
If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important to see a doctor for an examination.
The appointment begins with a discussion of your symptoms and medical history, followed by a discreet proctological examination.
Patients cannot reliably diagnose an anal fistula themselves - the diagnosis must be made by a doctor. If necessary, additional tests may be ordered to assess the location and course of the fistula tract.
At Dr. Maurins Clinic, anal fistulas are treated by placing a drain to allow the fistula tract to drain and help contain the inflammation. In some cases, a fistulotomy or fistulectomy is performed - surgical opening or removal of the fistula tract.
