The sequelae of low perianal abscess anal fistula surgery may generally include postoperative bleeding, anal sphincter injury, postoperative pain, anal stenosis and so on.
1. Postoperative bleeding: due to intraoperative surgical resection of low-level perianal abscess anal fistula, trauma will be formed in the perianal area after resection, and after the trauma is recovered, scar tissue will be formed or the wound is not healed. When the patient has constipation or diarrhea, it may further damage the trauma or lead to wound tearing, causing postoperative wound bleeding, and such cases need to be handled in time so as not to affect post-injury healing.
2. anal sphincter injury: in the process of low perianal abscess anal fistula surgery, the part of the anal fistula involved will be removed, the anal fistula is located in the anal sphincter around the anal sphincter, the operation may damage the anal sphincter, resulting in fecal incontinence. Careful exploration of the location of the fistula during surgery can reduce the occurrence of this complication.
3. Postoperative pain: there are a large number of sensory nerves distributed around the anus, and the sensory nerves here are sensitive, removing the fistula will stimulate the nerves, causing pain.
4. Anal stenosis: low perianal abscess anal fistula surgery is easy to damage the skin and muscles around the anus, postoperative wound healing may form scar tissue, resulting in anal stenosis. If anal stenosis occurs, regular postoperative anal dilatation is needed to avoid affecting the postoperative bowel function.
Although the low perianal abscess and anal fistula surgery may produce the above sequelae, but generally can be treated to improve, and perianal abscess and anal fistula disease patients may cause more harm to the body if not operated. Therefore, when the doctor suggests surgery, the patient must not be worried about the sequelae of surgery and refuse surgery.
