What is Understanding Anal Fistulas: Causes & Treatment about?

An anal fistula is an abnormal passageway that forms from the anus to the skin, often due to an infected anal gland leading to a perianal abscess. Common causes include inflammatory bowel diseases, anal STIs, and previous surgeries, with risk factors such as being male and having a history of abscesses or infections. Treatment typically involves surgical options like fistulotomy or seton placement, depending on the complexity of the fistula.
