Hi. I have had 5 abcess since I was 25...I am now 43. I have a complex and chronic fistula. sometimes it's fine but sometimes I have trouble coping and it makes me depressed. if anyone has any advice about how to manage it better it would be much appreciated. Diet, clothing, care of scar etc.

to the forum, Louise. Sorry you have to be here, but glad you found us!!

I've not had a fistula, but quite a few on here have. These are some links to posts on here that you might find of some use until someone comes along who might have some advice for you
