In Ayurveda, Bhagandara (fistula-in-ano) is considered a chronic tract disorder caused by vitiated Vata + Pitta + Kapha affecting the anal region. A 7.2 cm tract with active discharge indicates a developed fistula that needs definitive treatment, not only medicines. Most effective Ayurvedic management: Kshar Sutra Therapy (para-surgical) Medicated thread is placed in the tract to gradually cut, drain, and heal from inside Safe, minimally invasive, and low recurrence rate Track of 7.2 cm may take 6–10 weeks (or more) depending on healing

The Recommended Gold Standard Treatment For a fistula with a track of this length, doctors on the platform strongly advise against relying solely on medicines. The most effective Ayurvedic management is: Kshar Sutra Therapy:---- This is a para-surgical procedure where a medicated thread is placed in the track. It gradually cuts, cleanses, and heals the fistula from the inside out. Why it’s recommended: It has a very low recurrence rate compared to conventional surgery and is minimally invasive. For a 7.2 cm track, the process may take 6–10 weeks or more, as the thread is changed weekly to facilitate gradual healing. Supportive mediciens- 1.Triphala guggulu 2 tab twice daily with water after meals 2.Saptavismshati guggulu 2 tab twice daily with water after meals 3.Abhyaraishta 20 ml with 20 ml water twice daily after meals Vital Lifestyle & Digestive Care Since you mentioned occasional bloating and an “unsure” diet, stabilizing your digestion is critical to prevent pressure on the anal canal: Sitz Bath: Soak in a tub of warm water with a pinch of salt or Triphala Churna for 10–15 minutes twice daily. This reduces discomfort and maintains hygiene. Dietary Fiber: Increase intake of leafy greens, papaya, and whole grains. Avoid spicy food, non-veg, and refined flour (maida), as these cause constipation and aggravate the fistula. Hydration: Drink at least 2.5–3 liters of water daily to keep stools soft.

Hello, Your report clearly confirms a fistula in ano with a 7.2 cm tract connecting to anal canal This is not a simple piles issue - it is a track infection, so proper treatment is essential Good thing -no branching -mild symptoms -> This is early/manageable stage Ayurvedic view First truth (important) -fistula rarely heals with medicines alone -best Ayurvedic treatment= ksharasutra therapy (non surgical) -highly effective -minimal recurrence -recommended in your case Internal medication 1) Guggulutiktakam kashaya tablet= 2 tabs twice daily before meals =reduces infection and inflammation 2) Kaishor guggulu= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =helps healing of tract 3) Triphala tablets= 2 tabs at night with warm water =keeps stool soft very important External care (daily must) -Jatyadi taila =apply locally after cleaning= promotes healing and reduces discharge Sitz bath (compulsory) -warm water + turmeric or triphala -10-15 min daily =reduces infection and pain Diet -fiber rich diet -vegetables, oats -warm water -ghee small amount Avoid -spicy, non veg heavy food -fried/ junk food -constipation biggest enemy Lifestyle -don’t sit for long -avoid straining in toilet -walk daily Recovery expectation -symptoms relief= 2-3 weeks -complete healing = difficult with kshrasutra= proper cure in few weeks Medicines will control symptoms but for permanent cure, you should consult for ksharasutra therapy Do follow Hope this might be helpful Thank you

Follow above advice and Precaution, My fistula will heal without ksharsutra?

Not completely heal. As it is a big tract you should go for ksharsutra for better result. A combo of kshar sutra and the above mentioned medicines and changes will help your recovery quick.
