I am no doctor but a recent anal abscess sufferer with surgical drainage done. I started researching and came up with a few interesting medical research papers how to possibly prevent or cure fistulas without further surgeries.
1. Honey
This poor guy's behind looked like being shot with a shotgun! Really extreme case of multiple fistulas and multiple surgeries but Betadine cleaning&honey insertion did the job in about 6 months.

Some have experimented mixing crushed Cipro antibiotic with honey before applying it with fingers but that might be a bit extreme way. It seems applying near the fistula openings is the key.
2. Aloe Vera ointments and foods.
This seems to be very good for the post-op healing process (abscess or fistula surgery).
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20569031/
In rats they were able to reduce the fistula tract diameter by about 55 percent.

In pain management, very good results.

I am personally using 98 percent Aloe Vera gel to my behind 2-3 times a day and eating raw Aloe Vera.
3. (Wild) Oregano Oil
This is more anedoctal from various forms but seems to work for some.
4. Lemongrass tea/Feverfew herbs
Also some promising anedoctal stories in forums.
Good videos from this guy:
From what I have gathered, if the fistula is simple and shallow enough then one time fistulotomy surgery probably will cure it (90+ percent change) but with each new surgery after the first one the percentage of success goes down 20-30 percentage points per surgery.
