Incisions after low-position perianal abscess surgery are often superficial, while those after high-position perianal abscess surgery are often large and deep. Postoperative anal boil: Local symptoms: After pus discharge, the local skin temperature of the wound is not hot or slightly hot, the tissue is hard upon palpation or the fluctuant sensation is reduced, necrotic tissue is difficult to shed, new tissue does not grow, and the wound does not heal for a long time.
