An anal fissure is a superficial linear tear in the anoderm most commonly caused by passage of a large, hard stool. This tear is distal to the dentate line. Anal fissures are among the most common anorectal disorders in the pediatric population; however, adults also are affected.
An anal fistula is an inflammatory tract between the anal canal and skin. The 4 categories of fistulas, based on the relationship of fistula to sphincter muscles, are intersphincteric, transsphincteric, suprasphincteric, and extrasphincteric.
Fissures are defined as acute if present for less than 6 weeks, and they are defined as chronic if present for more than 6 weeks.
Anal fissures affect both sexes equally; however, an anterior fissure is more likely to develop in women (25%) than in men (8%).

The Fistula Herbal Cure Pack helps to clear the pus within first week of its usage. The herbs work as natural anti-biotics, anti-inflammatories and help to dry out the accumulated abscess in anal region. The herbs work together to clean the fistula from inside, heal the wound and dry out the tracks. The products do not cause any side effects like those caused by anti-biotics and can be used along with any other ongoing treatments.
It's even better if you don't do any other treatment but use these as these herbal products are good enough to cure the fistula from the root. Total about 3 months treatment is recommended. The oils should be applied locally , after defecation. they work as disinfectant and non-irritting. We have received several testimonials from people who used this combination for their incorrigible, stubborn and obstinate fistulas but they got healed quickly.
If these herbs are used together for 3-6 months, then the surgery can be avoided. The relief from the symptoms is there after 10-15 days of using the herbs but still to get rid of the diseases permanently, we recommend the use to be continued for about 3 months. In some cases, it should be used for 6 months as well.
Obstetric fistula was very common throughout the entire world but virtually disappeared within Europe and North America due to improvements in obstetrical care. To this day, the prevalence of obstetrical fistula is much lower in places that discourage early marriage, encourage and provide education of women and their bodies, and grant women access to family planning and skilled medical teams to assist during childbirth. This condition is still very prevalent in the developing world, especially in parts of Africa and much of South Asia (India, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Nepal).
The fistula usually develops when a prolonged labor presses the unborn child so tightly in the birth canal that blood flow is cut off to the surrounding tissues, which necrotise and eventually rots away. More rarely, the injury can be caused by female genital cutting, poorly performed abortions, or pelvic fractures. Other potential direct causes for the development of obstetric fistula are sexual abuse and rape, especially within conflict/post-conflict areas, other surgical trauma, gynecological cancers or other related radiotherapy treatment and, perhaps the most important, limited or no access to obstetrical care or emergency services. Proximal causes that can lead to the development of obstetric fistula concern issues of poverty, lack of education, early marriage and childbirth, the role and status of women in developing countries, and harmful traditional practices and sexual violence. Poverty, early marriage, and lack of education place women in positions of severe disadvantage and do not enable them to be advocates for their own health and wellbeing.
Access to obstetric emergency care is one of the major challenges in preventing the development of obstetric fistula. The availability and access to medical facilities that have a trained staff and specialized surgical equipment needed for cesarean births is very limited in certain parts of the world. Factors that may heavily influence an individual's ability or decision to access this emergency care can involve everything from general fear and mistrust of hospitals and healthcare workers, a lack of equipped facilities and trained staff, economic constraints, religious beliefs and practices, cultural norms, and previous birth experiences.
In terms of cultural factors surrounding the birthing process, opinions and practices vary all over the world. In many developing countries, giving birth at home with the assistance of an elder woman or traditional birth attendant is considered the preferred and respected way to give birth. Some consider this point to be controversial and see it more as an economic access issue instead of a cultural issue. Seeking out the option of surgery versus a vaginal birth, in certain places, is also thought to be less womanly and unnatural. This negative perception of surgery can greatly influence a woman's decision to not seek out emergency obstetrical treatment.
Other factors surrounding a woman's ability and choice to access obstetrical care can be rooted in the nature of her relationship with her male partner or male decision makers within her family. This can affect the kind of care and assistance women receive during child labor. In many instances, receiving treatment from a male physician is not pursued or considered a real option due to the religious or cultural violations connected with a male treating a woman who is not his wife or intimate partner. This is an opinion held by both men and women in various parts of the world.
Yet another causal factor is that of logistical access to health care clinics. Many women who suffer from this condition are living in very rural areas and, therefore, access to emergency services often requires some form of travel. The availability of transportation, cost of transportation and road construction can all play a crucial role in the ability of pregnant women to access emergency obstetrical services.
The availability and access to medical facilities that have a trained staff and specialized surgical equipment needed for cesarean births is also very limited in certain parts of the world. In many instances, women do not consider their local hospitals and clinics to be places where they could ever seek such care and therefore do not go when there is an obstetrical emergency.
Primary risk factors are early and/or closely-spaced pregnancies and lack of access to emergency obstetric care; a 1993 study in Nigeria found that 55 percent of the victims were under 19 years of age, and 94 percent gave birth at home or in poorly equipped local clinics. When available at all, cesarean sections and other medical interventions are usually not performed until after tissue damage has already been done.
Early marriage, domestic violence, female genital mutilation, malnutrition which is linked to under-development of the female body, and lack of education/illiteracy also put women at great risk for developing obstetric fistula. Personal knowledge, tradition and experience with childbirth may also put a woman at risk to developing obstetric fistula, especially for women who have previously experienced limited complications with past vaginal births. Women giving birth for the first time and with no real knowledge regarding childbirth may not recognize an emergency situation/complication and therefore not seek out help.
Countries that suffer from poverty, civil and political unrest or conflict, and other dangerous public health issues such as malaria, HIV/ AIDS, and tuberculosis often suffer from a severe burden and breakdown within the healthcare system. This breakdown puts many people at risk, specifically women. Many hospitals within these conditions suffer from shortages of staff, supplies, and other forms of necessary medical technology that would be necessary to perform reconstructive obstetric fistula repair.
If left untreated, ulcerations and infections can persist as well as kidney disease/failure leading to death. Urinal and fecal leaking are the major physical side effects and because many women suffering from obstetric fistula do not want to leak, they will limit their intake of water and other liquids. This can lead to a very dangerous case of dehydration. Nerve damage to the legs is also noted as a medical side effect. In some cases, many women struggle to walk from this nerve damage and need physical therapy following the treatment of the fistula.
Most women living with obstetric fistula also struggle with depression, abandonment by their partners, families and communities, and live in isolation because of the constant leaking and odor. Many women report feelings of humiliation, pain, loneliness, shame and mourning for the loss of their lives and the child they lost during delivery. Because of the constant leaking and smell, many women are isolated from food preparation and prayer ceremonies because they are thought to be constantly unclean. Suicide and attempted suicide are also common amongst women with this condition. Social isolation, increased poverty and decreased employment opportunities due to this condition force many women to turn to commercial sex work and begging.
Prevention comes in the form of access to obstetrical care, support from trained health care professionals throughout pregnancy, providing access to family planning, promoting the practice of spacing between births, and supporting women in education and postponing early marriage.
