Suffer from intense itching, burning, and stinging after the (external) hemorrhoidectomy

Hi! I suffer from intense itching, burning, and stinging after the (external) hemorrhoidectomy, even in my 5th month after my surgery. I am distressed. I should not have had the surgery. It was one of my big mistakes. I still suffer from itching, burning, and stinging all over (anus, vulva and...

THD 5 days later - seems to have made things worse.... :-(

Answered by a doctor

My experience with anal skin tag surgery

Answered by a doctor

I had my operation 2 weeks ago. When I came out of surgery, I felt pretty good and didn't think the pain was too bad. I went home and laid in bed for the rest of the night. By 3AM, the pain had reached it's peak, but was still only about a 6 on a scale of 10, so not too bad. Warm baths took the...

Answered by a doctor

I had a hemorrhoidectomz 8 weeks ago. Ever since then I have been on and off severely constipated. Ever since surgery my hole has been narrower, and the stools have been as thin as pencils. I thought that maybe this would eventually go away but it still hasn't. The doctor said that I have anal...
