About the Patient
Mr Suresh Galbale had been suffering from a fistula for nearly eight months, causing daily discomfort and repeated symptoms. He visited Medicover Hospitals, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, where he consulted Dr Anand Auti (Consultant Colorectal Surgeon). After evaluation and diagnosis, he was advised to undergo Fistula Surgery. The procedure was successfully completed, and he is recovering well with proper follow-up care.
In the Patient's Words
"I had been suffering from this fistula for a long time, and I am very happy with the care I received here. Dr Anand Auti performed a successful surgery, and I am recovering well now. I appreciate the care provided by the doctor and the hospital staff." - Suresh Galbale.
What is a Fistula?
A fistula is a small, abnormal tunnel that forms between the inside of the anus and the skin around it. It usually develops after an anal abscess, when the infection drains, but the opening does not heal completely.
Common symptoms include:
- Persistent pain around the anus
- Pus or discharge from a small opening in the skin
- Irritation and swelling in the anal region
Fistulas rarely close on their own and usually require surgical intervention to prevent recurring infections and discomfort.
What Treatment did we provide to Suresh Galbale at Medicover?
Based on Mr Galbale's condition, Fistula Surgery was performed by Dr Anand Auti. The goal of surgery was to:
- Remove the fistula tract
- Clear the infection and allow healthy healing
- Preserve anal sphincter function
The surgery was successful, and he is now on the path to full recovery with improved comfort and mobility.
