Fistula Management
Fistula management involves the treatment and care of abnormal connections between organs or vessels, often resulting from injury, surgery, or disease. Common types include anal fistulas and urinary fistulas. Management strategies may include medication, dietary changes, and surgical interventions to close the fistula and promote healing.
Effective fistula management also requires regular monitoring and follow-up care. Patients may need to maintain proper hygiene and follow specific guidelines to prevent infection. Collaboration with healthcare professionals, including surgeons and nurses, is essential for successful outcomes and improved quality of life for those affected.
