Nawaz sir
Fistula is stable. No discharge or pain.
I had completed three doses of Nit Acid for the fissure I suspect inside. The pain is less and is mainly after the bowel movement. It stays for about 1 hr. please advise what can I take for the fissure.

Dear Nawaz,
I took Berberis 1x, 3 days. 5 days passed.
Last 2 days discharge from fistula external opening is mainly 2-3 drops watery blurry pink, seems pink blood mixed with yellow watery discharge
It had been more than 3 weeks I had Merc Sol 1M.
Best regards,
Scorpion

Dear Nawaz,
It had been 12 days I took Merc Sol 1M.
Discharge from fistula external opening is less, watery transparetlnt sometimes with 1 drop pink and sometimes 1-2 drops watery yellow.
Today there is pain, urge to go to stool very often even none or very less stool. I ate some egg in the morning.
Now I started to eat bread made of almond to prevent gas problems.
I'm under stress about business.
Best regards,
Scorpion

Dear Scorpion, AoA,
Sorry to miss your post.
What are the current symptoms in detail?
You needed Nux Vomica 200C. Did you take?
Many prayers for you.

Dr Nawaz,
It is now two weeks I took another dose (3rd one) of Merc Sol. 1m and before this I took one dose of Thuja 1m.
Now feeling better - less discharge and only sometimes yellow color stool (very less amount) comes out. Feeling like inside sore is getting cured. Still two small holes are visible from outside.
I have Thuja 1m and Merc Sol 1m - please advice.
Regards,
Patka

Dear Nawaz, AoA
After Nux Vomica C200 for 3 days, the day later I took Merc Sol 1M. Today, Monday, it had been 11 days after Merc Sol 1M.
Last Tuesday to Saturday, five days I had fever afternoons to nights, upto 38.8 degC. Now fine
About fistula, Even I eat very less and take care about pus and gas forming food discharge from fistula external wound is 10-15 drops creamy green-yellow from morning to night, night to morning. I have difficulty during BM, stool come in very tiny parts or none. I feel gas forced to fistula external wound. And maybe because of this sometimes discharge is 5-6 drops yellow pus with very tiny undigested parts.
Today there is constipation which make me afraid. I'm afraid could be blocked because of inner wound make me afraid of turning back to very beginning :(
There is sensitivity around fistula and pain when sitting, even walking, which make me too much restless.
I took 2 days Hypericum C200 because of pain.
Mentally and physically not good. Stress and worry about this condition
Waiting your instructions urgent
Best regards,
Scorpion

Nawaz Sir
It has been almost a month since I wrote to you. Things were very busy at home. Fistula was OK too. There was no discharge or pain for almost a month.
I can feel some pain now. Almost feels like as if the fistula tube is hurting. there is no discharge yet. minor swelling so far. pain is felt while sitting.

Sir,
I am confused as to exactly what I have, possible fistula or abscess. About 3 weeks ago I awoke in the morning with intense pain around my rectum. At the time, I believed it was hemorrhoids. I took and used every OTC I could find. None worked and I could barely walk. I began going through my supplements and oils. I located my Arnica Montana. I decided to give it a try. I applied the oil (pretty much) to the entire area. I had immediate relief. I continued it until the pain resided. However, the pain has never completely gone and after investigation, I feel I may have more than a hemorrhoid.
I have a quarter size flat bumb about one inch from my rectum. This seems to change a bit daily. It can get quite painful and feels sometimes like a swollen vein moving toward my outer butt cheek.
I do not nor have I ever had any constipation. I have not had any puss, discharge or anything other.
Yesterday it began to get quite painful again. I began taking the following as I did the morning it first began.
Super Silica 1288mg (15 drops 3-4 times a day as directed on bottle)
Horse Chestnut 250mg (once daily)
Calendula 100mg (once daily)
I am also still applying the Arnica Montana oil topically, as it is truly great at stopping the throbbing and delivers pain relief almost immediately.
I also take Spirulina 500mg as a daily supplement.
Please let me know what you think this may be and how to proceed with a homeopathic remedy.
