Anal fistula natural treatment along with home remedies for fistuls in ano both works side by side wonderfully to manage the condition. Diet plays a very important role in the treatment of fistula in ano. Constipation is the reason that aggravates the condition further so it has to be avoided. Diet with high fiber is highly recommended. Fiber works by increasing the amount of stools in the intestines. Regular use of high fiber diet can be useful to manage the condition. Person should take plenty of water while using high fiber. It cleans the colons and avoids constipation. Fiber is made of large carbohydrate molecules that pass through the intestines without being used by the body. Examples of high fiber diet are:- Wheat germ Brown rice Brown bread Barley Whole wheat pasta Papaya Banana Orange Apple Pear Broccoli Cauliflower Spinach Carrot Reddish Tomato Onion Green pepper and so many Avoid very spicy, hot food items which may lead to further complications and increases the signs and symptoms. All this may aggravate the condition like pain and bleeding during defecation. Eat half of cup of raw cabbage juice daily to soften the stools and easy passage. Drink plenty of water to clear the channels and flush out the toxins out from the body. Eat papaya as it is very effective fruit to clear the bowels and avoid constipation. Take 1000 mg almost daily through diet as it helps in prevention of anal fistula from the anal abscess. Amla, oranges etc are the main sources. One amla is equal to 30 oranges in nutritional values. Have less meal at a time and avoid large meals so that intestines have less amount of food to digest at a time. Avoid excessive cleansing of the anal region as it may leads to irritation and itching of the particular area. Sitz bath must be tried and it is mostly suggested by the doctors. Here buttocks are immersed in warm water up to almost 30 minutes at a time. Some analgesic oils can also be added to pacify the symptoms. Use ring shaped cushion that takes weight off the anus. And it reduces the pressure over the blood vessels of the anal region.
