General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi. This looks to be classical fistula in ano- so the smell is like stool.
I would suggest such a patient to undergo a proper check up by a Surgeon. You need a proper surgery of adequate incision and drainage on the surgical guidelines so that there is a chance of healing in the first incidence.
These are known to recur.
If this is of a low level , there is more chance of complete cure .
