Hi,
This is my second month after having a perianal abscess opened and drained. The healing went great until two weeks ago. I set up the followup appointment for yesterday but rewind back to two weeks ago. It closed up and built more pressure again. Then I started to bath in hotter water and it opened and drained more which I thought was great. I gained another large lump in another area in the same area. Then I started to use manuka honey in that area. Throughout the week, the new lump shrank and the original is still draining some more and drains more with the honey. Now at my followup that was yesterday, I learn that the new big lump was a hemorrhoid and the original abscess developed a fistula. He said that the fistula doesn't have a second opening and that is small but requires surgery. Has anyone gone through anything similar to what I'm going through and have a success story?
Thanks
