How perianal abscesses are treated surgically



The treatment for perianal abscess surgery is incision and drainage of the abscess.

Perianal abscess surgery can be carried out under local anesthesia, the patient usually lies on the surgical bed in a truncated position, after anesthesia is completed, the scalpel is used to make a radial incision in the part of the abscess where the fluctuation of the abscess is the most obvious, so that the pus can be fully drained, and the incision should not be filled in after the operation to keep the drainage open.

Perianal abscess patients by abscess incision drainage, the vast majority of patients will appear anal fistula. Perianal abscess is often located in the posterior or lateral subcutaneous space of the anus, and the lesion has obvious redness, swelling, and pressure and pain sensation. Patients can be treated with nuclear magnetism to determine the location of the infected internal orifice before surgical treatment, followed by hanging drainage treatment, which can reduce the probability of anal fistula.

If the diagnosis is perianal abscess, it is recommended to go to the anorectal department of the regular hospital in time to avoid the spread of infection aggravation.
