There are effective, proven treatments, and your doctor can help develop a plan that’s right for you.
If you’ve been diagnosed with a fistula or suspect that you have one, the first place to start is by understanding what a fistula actually is. This brochure will guide you through what a fistula is, why they occur, types of fistulas (including peri-anal fistulas) and available treatment options.
