Anal fistulas low type and high type will be there. High type generally need surgical intervention or laser treatment intervention other wise will not heal spontaneously. Low type also need surgical intervention, seton placement etc treatment options are there. But we can give trail of medical treatment like eating fiber diet preventing constipation, infection control, sitz bath etc for healing fistula.

Fistula in young age need to be worked up. Lactifiber is needed. Along with that you need other medications too.

Hello lybrate-user, if you are diagnosed to have fistula, then please understand that it's an extra passage which is communicating from rectum with outside. So only ointment or antibiotic will not going to give you cure. Sitting in hot betadine water is going to keep the area clean. But you need to consult one proctologist for this. Hopefully you will be cured.
