  • It is a simple, safe and sure treatment for fistula –in-ano (95-98% success rate)
  •  Ksharsutra is – chemical fistulectomy rather than surgical fistulectomy.
  •  It is a simple minimum invasive surgical technique.
  • Recurrence is negligible (3-5%).
  • Performed in Minor O.T. conditions.
  • Only 30- 45 minutes is required for the procedure
  • Hospital stay is usually minimum (5-6 hrs).
  • Minimal bed rest is required after the procedure.
  • No damage to anal sphincter and chances of incontinence is practically nil.
  • It is an Ambulatory procedure, no hospitalization required.
  • Only local/topical anesthesia required (generally). However sometimes no anesthesia at all is required.
  •  Usually no antibiotic coverage required.
  • Patient can resume his / her daily routine within 3 to 5 days.
  • Most important benefit of Kshar Sutra Therapy over Modern Surgeries is that the muscles that supports the Anus and helps in controlling the bowel movements are not dissected and hence the possibility of Anal Incontinence (loss of power to hold stools) is not there.

  • I am currently going through Kshara Sutra treatment. My Ayurveda doctor has told me that he has to change the Kshara Sutra thread thrice and after that he will cut open and do a fistulotomy. My question is, is this acceptable procedure? Please help.

    Thank You
    Sunder

    • Dear Mr. Sunder,
      Every decision depends on Doctor’s individual experience. I don’t do fistulotomy usually in my practice. In my opinion Kshara sutra is enough to cure completely. But sometimes if track is long, fistulotomy may be done to reduce total healing time.
      Thanks and regards,
      Dr. Naveen Chauhan

  • Thanks for your reply.

    While I am discussing this my Doctor, Can I go for an ultrasound to determine the need for fistulotomy after 3 times Kshara Sutra changes?

    Thanks again.

  • Having severe pain when sitting exactly at waist level and in between my bums towards leftside. (Not at anal area. No constipation problem. No blood, No other side problems) ; Is it a fistula. Is it a infection in the anal track ? can I get a treatment in Bangalore, if ‘yes’ let me know whom to contact and where? I have gone to a physician he didn’t suspected any fistula like. Kindly suggest thru email.

  • I belong to a small town in west Bengal. I saw advertisements for kshara sutra in local newspapers I also suffer from hemorrhoid. My question is does every ayurvedic doctor do kshara sutra will equal efficiency and with high success rate?

    • No, if a doctor is qualified one and experienced you can go for him. See his track record, meet or communicate with cured patients then decide yourself.

  • My dad is suffering from internal hemoroid will kshar sutra help in curing the same? How long will it take to cure? Is there any other way of treatment? Is there any treatment for constant constipation?

    • Kshara sutra ligation procedure is a good method to remove internal hemorrhoids, external hemorrhoids or sentinel tags or benign skin growths. It takes about 15-20 days for complete cure. As far as constipation is concerned, it depends on many factors. Kindly read articles on constipation in this blog.
