Seeking help for abscess near rectum in daughter that will not heal

Posted By Suzie (Fredericktown, Ohio) on 05/14/2015

My daughter had a abscess near her rectum about a year ago. It still has not healed she sees a colon rectal surgeon that has done two procedures where he goes in and looks for a fistula and has found nothing. We pack it and she takes 2 baths a day. He can't find a fistula but says there has to be one since it won't heal. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hey Suzie;

Re abscess that won't heal...

Abscess is bacterially caused. So even though surgery has supposedly removed the cause of the infection, perhaps some infection still remains.

If me, I pack with cloth saturated in colloidal silver and let stay in place for at least an hour. Repeat two hours later. I'd repeat a day later, twice in a two hour period.

If improved I'd keep it up for a week.

Open a capsule of high quality probiotic, 30 billion or higher, and place some of the powder on a tissue. Use a wet finger to place the powder on the anal area. It might burn a little! Leave on for an hour up to 6 hours, then rinse in the shower. Only part of the capsule will be used, store the rest in the fridge.
