I was diagnosed with an anal fistula in Jan 2017 and had a seton fitted to help reduce the infection as the lift procedure was not able to take place due to this sitting on my muscle. I recently had surgery again in October 2017 and they planned to complete the lift procedure again. Unfortunately this procedure was to risky as they have found another fistula and placed another seton in. I have to go back in four weeks for a check up.
I often find that I smell even though I wash throughout the day. I find that there is quite a lot of discharge.
Can anyone give me any advice on anything that could help to prevent the smell and if there is anything that could prevent any More fistulas forming. I have been told that my recovery will e slow and could result in 2-3 more operations.
Many thanks
