So, about two months back, I had a seton put in for a complex perianal fistula. When I was under, my surgeon cut a slice out beside the seton, leaving some skin between the chunk she took out and the seton hole.
Then I was put on imuran! I achieved a good remission (though any stress does numbers on me). However, the imuran is causing my seton and the other missing chunk to not heal. There is alot of irritated tissue around them both, and the skin wall between them is starting to get thinner from seton abrasions.
I've seen my surgeon, and she cauterized both wounds with silver nitrate. It was very painful (sensitive area lawl), and three weeks later, has achieved nothing. I am in pain most of the time. I do the sitz baths.
Can anyone suggest any kind of pro-healing stuff? I don't want to get it cauterized again, as that was alot worse than the seton placement itself. I don't know what to do, and I really just want to rip the seton out D:
Help!
