Hemmorhoids: Many people present with "piles" and this can actually be the issue or one of many other problems that your doctor can help there are dietary, behavioral, hygiene modifications as well as procedures that can help with these common problems. Both constipation and diarrhea can lead to this condition as well it is best if you consult with a general or colorectal surgeon to help with this matter.

Abscess: Treatment of the abscess and hemorrhoid is best done by the colorectal surgeon or general surgeon. Abscesses often need to be drained by a procedure called i;d (incision and drainage). With adequate drainage the addition of antibiotics should allow it to heal appropriately. Your surgeon will choose the antibiotics most likely to be effective.
