What is Perianal Fistula?

A perianal fistula is a small, abnormal tunnel that forms between the inside of the anus and the skin around the anal area. It usually develops after an anal infection or abscess that does not heal completely. This condition can cause pain, swelling, itching, and continuous or occasional discharge near the anus. Without proper care, symptoms often worsen over time.

A fistula does NOT heal on its own — expert medical treatment is essential.
