Hello,
Thank you for your query.
According to your details the possibilities are-
1.Simple boil
2.Fistula in ano
if it is simple boil it will cure by antibiotic treatment.
if recurrence occur then it might be due to fistula in ano.
In this condition you need to consult with a colorectal surgeon.
I think it will help you.
