ANAL FISTULA
• Anal Fistula is an abnormal passage (communication) between the interior of the anal canal or rectum and the skin surface around the anus.
• Rarely, the fistula may communicate from anus (rectum) to Vagina (Recto-Vaginal Fistula), Urinary Bladder (Recto-Vesical Fistula), Urethera (Recto-Uretheral Fistula) or other pelvic structures, including the bowel
SYMPTOMS OF ANAL FISTULA
• Symptoms are usually a purulent discharge & drainage of pus and/or stool near the anus, which can irritate the outer tissues causing itching and discomfort.
• Pain occurs when fistulas become blocked and abscesses recur.
• A fistula-in-ano is diagnosed when a probe has been passed between the opening on the skin's surface & the interior opening.
