Piles and fistula affect the anus and cause swelling, pain, and discomfort. Though they involve the same area, they are different conditions.
A hemorrhoid, also called piles, is a swollen blood vessel inside or outside the anus. Pressure from straining, constipation, pregnancy, or sitting for long periods can cause veins to swell, leading to bleeding and swelling outside the anus (hemorrhoid symptom).
A fistula is a small tunnel that forms between the bowel and the skin near the anus, usually after an untreated infection. Many people ask, why does anal fistula occur? It mainly happens when an abscess drains and leaves a tunnel that does not heal.
Piles happen when there is too much pressure on the veins in the anus or rectum. This pressure causes the veins to swell and form piles.
Small changes in daily habits like eating more fibre and avoiding long sitting can help lower the risk of piles. If piles develop, medical treatment may be needed for relief.
An anal fistula forms when an infection near the anus creates an abscess, which then drains and leaves a small tunnel under the skin. If the abscess does not heal properly, a fistula develops.
Anal fistulas do not heal on their own. Medical treatment is important to prevent infection, ongoing pain, and further complications.
Piles and fistula cause discomfort and changes around the anus. Recognising early signs can help patients seek the right care.
In many cases, a fistula appears as a small hole or swelling near the anus, often leaking pus. Some patients search for a picture of fistula disease online to understand how the condition looks before visiting a doctor.
Piles and fistula may start with mild signs. But if symptoms do not improve, or if they get worse, medical treatment becomes necessary.

Piles and fistula treatments in India show strong results, especially when diagnosed early and treated with the right procedure. With advanced technology and experienced surgeons, most patients recover well and return to daily activities without long-term issues.
Most patients get relief from pain, bleeding, and swelling soon after surgery. Recurrence is low when follow-up care and diet changes are followed.
Treating fistula early reduces the chance of infection and long-term drainage. Recovery improves when surgery is supported by proper wound care and follow-up.
Apollo Hospitals in India provide advanced laser surgery for piles and minimally invasive procedures for fistula, including VAAFT and fistulotomy. Treatment options are selected based on the condition's severity.
The surgical teams are experienced in managing simple and complex cases. Apollo focuses on reducing complications, lowering recurrence rates, and helping patients recover faster.
Dr. Venkatesh Munikrishnan, Head of Colorectal Surgery at Apollo Hospitals Chennai, explains:
“It’s important to remember when a diagnosis of hemorrhoid or pile is made, the first line treatment would be lifestyle modification, which will include increasing water intake, reducing the intake of red meat and a high fibre diet. A doctor will add a simple laxative to free your bowel movement. These simple measures usually settle your symptoms. If symptoms persist, you should see a doctor for further surgical management.”
Dr. Narasimhaiah Srinivasaiah, Senior Consultant in Colorectal Surgery at Apollo Hospitals Bangalore, states that:
“Hemorrhoids are present in every individual. When they get enlarged and start causing symptoms, we call them pathological or problematic hemorrhoids. Normally they help us in giving that cushioning into the anal canal, they cause tightness in the back passage to prevent leakage. But when they do get troublesome or problematic, they can cause prominent lumps, leakage, itching, and bleeding.”
Apollo’s team approach and advanced technology give Bangladeshi patients a better chance at recovery, especially when treatment begins early.
