Many things affect your health and wellness. Work with your healthcare team to decide what is best for you as you manage your perianal problems. Taking steps to prevent perianal problems is the most important thing you can do to manage these conditions. Perianal problems often return after treatment if y​ou do not make any changes to your diet, activity, and bathroom habits.

You don't need to do everything all at once. Take realistic and manageable steps. Consider why making a change may benefit you and the things that matter to you.
