Frequently Asked Questions

Can a fistula heal without surgery?

Fistulas very rarely close on their own and usually require a procedure, because the tract remains a path for infection.

Will fistula surgery affect my bowel control?

Modern laser and sphincter-saving techniques are specifically designed to preserve the muscles responsible for continence.

Why does a fistula keep recurring?

Incomplete treatment or a complex tract can cause recurrence, which is why accurate mapping and the right surgical technique are important.

Is the laser procedure painful?

Laser fistula treatment is minimally invasive with relatively little post-operative pain compared with traditional surgery.

How long does healing take?

Healing time varies with the fistula’s complexity but is generally a few weeks with proper aftercare.
