Anal Fistula

Anal Fistula Treatment – Expert and Compassionate Care at SurgicalSol An anal fistula is a small, abnormal tunnel that forms between the inside of the anal canal and the skin near the anus, often developing after an anal abscess that has not healed properly. This condition can cause persistent discomfort, pain, swelling, and recurrent drainage or infection. At SurgicalSol, Dr. Asif Iqbal provides expert, compassionate care for this sensitive issue, offering advanced surgical solutions to permanently resolve the fistula and restore patient comfort and quality of life. The treatment for an anal fistula is almost always surgical, and the specific procedure depends on the fistula's complexity, location, and its relationship to the sphincter muscles. Dr. Iqbal specializes in a range of techniques, from a Fistulotomy—which involves opening up the entire tunnel to allow it to heal from the inside out—to more complex sphincter-sparing procedures like the LIFT procedure (Ligation of the Intersphincteric Fistula Tract) or the use of a biologic plug or fibrin glue. The primary goal is to eradicate the fistula tract while preserving the function of the anal sphincter muscles to maintain continence.

Performed with meticulous precision, these procedures aim to eliminate the source of infection and promote healthy healing. Dr. Asif Iqbal takes a personalized approach, carefully evaluating each case to determine the safest and most effective surgical plan. At SurgicalSol, patients can trust in a supportive environment where their comfort and long-term well-being are the top priorities, leading to a definitive resolution and a return to a pain-free life.
