A Real Patient Recovery Story
Living with an anal fistula can be physically painful and emotionally exhausting. Constant discharge, discomfort, and fear of surgery often make patients delay treatment.
A 35-year-old male patient came to our Gurgaon clinic with continuous pus discharge from the perianal region and recurring constipation for nearly one year. The condition was affecting his daily comfort and confidence.
After proper diagnosis and personalized treatment under Dr. Preeti Paliwal, the patient achieved complete recovery through Ksharsutra Therapy — without major surgery.

Physical Examination

Such cases often have higher recurrence risk if not treated properly.
