Treatment Options, Cost & Insurance Coverage for Anal Fissure
2 months ago
I have a small lump outside the anal area, which I understand is a fissure. I want to know the treatment options (temporary vs permanent), the cost of treatment, whether insurance will cover it, and what options are available if I do not have insurance.

Dr. Pujanath, a laparoscopy and laser specialist with 15 years of experience, explains that the lump is a fissure.
There are two types of treatment: temporary surgery or permanent laser treatment. The latest laser technique is minimally invasive, and if pain and bleeding are reduced, the treatment can be completed in one day, allowing you to walk the next day. Pain can be managed with tablets or ointments, and laser treatment provides a permanent solution.
The complete treatment package costs ₹45,000-90,000 covering admission, procedure, and discharge. If you have health or medical insurance, most of the cost is covered, and you may only pay less amount.
If you do not have insurance, a one-time payment is possible, or the amount can be converted into a no-cost EMI for the same total amount without interest or additional charges.
