Core Tip: This article highlights the critical role of addressing both psychological and physical factors in post-operative recovery for perianal diseases, as evidenced by Hou et al’s study. Their findings show that pre-operative illness perception and emotional states significantly influence recovery outcomes. Effective strategies include integrating psychological assessments, comprehensive counseling, and a multidisciplinary care approach.
