Anal fistula: Diagnosis and treatment

 What is an anal fistula?

An anal fistula is a small passageway connecting an abscess, guest broadcast aka infected cavity in the anus to an opening in the skin that is around the anus. The anus is the external opening through which the faeces exit the body. Right inside the anus there are a number of small glands that produce mucus. Sometimes these glands become blocked and cause an infection in the rectal area. This leads to an abscess and eventually a fistula.

 Causes of anal fistula:

The main cause of anal fistula is blocked anal glands that lead to anal abscesses. Although this is the main known cause, there are other factors that cause anal fistula, they are:

Trauma

Radiation therapy - mostly cancer treatment

Crohn's disease - a disease of the intestines that is inflammatory

Tuberculosis

Cancer

Diverticulitis - the formation of small pouches in the large intestine that become inflamed

Sexually transmitted diseases - sexually transmitted diseases

Symptoms of anal fistula

Pain and swelling around the anus

Frequent anal abscesses

Foul smelling drainage (smell of pus) or blood from the opening around the anus. The pain decreases as the fistula drains from the body.

Irritation of the skin around the anus from painful drainage

Bleeding

Pain with bowel movements

Chills, fever and feeling tired

Diagnosis and treatment of anal fistula:

An anal fistula is usually diagnosed by examining the area in the anus and around the anus. The doctor will look at the opening in the skin, also known as the fistula tract. They then try to determine the depth of the tract and the direction it is going. In most cases, drainage is from an external opening.

Some fistulas show no visible marks on the outer skin. In such cases, the doctor may perform additional tests to investigate the problem in depth. Such processes may include:

Ultrasound or MRI of the anal area to better visualize the fistula

Anoscope – this involves inserting a special instrument to look into the anus or anus.

Sometimes your surgeon will examine you in the operating room under anesthesia to diagnose the fistula.

Most fistulas are treated only with over-the-counter medications. If not, or in unavoidable circumstances, surgery is performed. This is a minor surgical procedure and can also be performed at local clinics. 

 It can also control Crohn's disease, which is an inflammatory bowel disease. According to a study by WebMD, about 30% of people with coronary artery disease develop fistulas. In some cases, a colonoscopy is performed to further analyze the internal damage. During a colonoscopy, an instrument similar to a light guide is inserted into the colon through the anus. The process is performed under conscious sedation, which is light anesthesia.

Most fistulas respond well to medication and surgery. Your surgeon may recommend soaking the affected area in a warm bath, also known as a sits bath. It is about softening the stool. Some stool softeners and laxatives are also recommended for a week after surgery.

Since some pain is prevalent after surgery, the doctor applies an anesthetic such as lidocaine to ease the discomfort. They may also give you some pain medication for a short time. The medication is maintained until the fistula is properly healed and no pain is felt.

Depending on where the fistula is present, your doctor may order you to cut the sphincter muscle, which is responsible for opening and closing the anus. They try not to damage the skin, but it's a really tricky business and it's harder to control the bowels after the procedure. However, with medication and proper treatment, it can be controlled.
