My doctor told me if I didn't have a stool pass after 2 days to call you need to keep fluids keep stool softener and try milk of magnesia but definitely call and yes it will be painful believe me I thought I was going to shoot myself it does get better after about a week and a half diarrhea is not good for it so you want to keep it soft but not runny but definitely call if it's still happening
LORD HAVE MERCY JESUS. Are You Serious ? This Is My Worse Nightmare. I Had My Hemroidectomy 6 Days Ago & I Think This Is HELL On Earth
OMG! please be mentally prepared if you are going to cut it off! *btw i had internal hemorrhoid*
Today is my Day 13 after surgery. During the journey i farted a lot. Idk why but i just kept having the urge to fart and it felt less painful after farting. All i eat is Fruits, Veges, Soup. I avoid eating white bread and white rice and i drink a lot of water. Although pee-ing is painful and unable to i still drink a lot of water.
Day 1 : I was unable to pee after the surgery. Horrible! Nurse do not let me go home. After hours of trying finally i peed but its painful! I believe is because the pee part is connected to the muscle of the ass. When i stop peeing the retraction is killing me! What disappointed me the most is the doctor never said anything to me after my surgery. I dont even know how many hemorrhoid he cut off and not being advised what to do except from pharmacy on what pills to take.
Day 2 : All i eat is Fruits and i drank the stool softener. I had diarrhea watery type no formation of stool. OMG another hell day! Able to stand but not sit. most of the time i lie down. Unable to pee at all although i had the urge badly. I farted a lot. Applied Numb Cream from Doc after BM. Better.
Day 3 : A proper BM. HOLY MAMA! Is so painful that i had cold sweat and almost fainted. Crying a lot. I cant sit so i stand to poop and pee. Farted alot. Pee is still a painful thing up to Day 7 and i stopped eating Painkillers because i scared that it will make my stools hard.
Day 4 : BM is not as painful as day 3 but still.
Skip to Day Day 10 : BM starts to be hard compared to previous Days. Something is poking me since Day 9 so Then i asked my mom to help me checked my butt. I realized that THERES A CHUNK OF MEAT DANGLING OUT OF MY BUTT!!! I panicked. Called Doc to check but to no avail. Doc very busy!
Day 11: STOOL IS DARK BLACK IN COLOR!
Day 12 : When back to see the doc.Waited for hours. I showed him the photo (like having external hemorrhoid) he said is normal is healing. Then i told him the stitches poking me. He removed it for me. THEN im in pain unable to asked more cos i stunned and he left immediately. Theres so many question more i want to ask him! WHY IS MY STOOL BLACK IN COLOR and HAVING HARD TIME PASSING MOTION!?
:'( I need help. IS THERE A CHUNK OF MEAT OUT OF YOUR BUTT WITH STITCHES ON IT ? AND IS UR STOOL BLACK IN COLOR?

Hi all, I had my hemoroidectomy 6 days ago and I am still in excruciating pain and no BM yet. I spent day 2 and 3 vomiting due to intense pain and i guess perhaps the pain killers. I initially put the lack of BM to the fact that i couldn't keep food down but by day 4 when I called my GP, he increased the laxatives stating that constipation could revert the surgery.
Two attempts where I had the urge for BM have resulted in the most unbearable pain ever plus bleeding. This is from me with 4 kids + no drugs.
Warm salt bath relief a tiny bit but once am out, back to pain. Releasing gas is a killer
, can't seat, can't walk and my bum is still weeping.
Although the surgeon said it will be painful, if I knew recovery was this bad, I would have given it a miss

Looks like there are a LOT of horror stories here. I had my surgery 4/25/2018. The first few days peeing was a bit of challenge. I went (though it did take a bit), but not nearly at my normal flow. At this point, I go on demand. Flow is still lighter than normal, but acceptable.
Had my first BM four days after surgery. Though it was painful, the fear of not knowing what to expect outweighed what actually happened. It’s gitten easier and easier every day. I was prescribe oxycodine. Only felt the need to use it after BMs those first few days.
At this point, I’m THRILLED with my recovery and results considering the years I dealt with prolapsed roids and the several office visits to try banding before finally getting surgery. Overall, the pain from the whole ordeal wasn’t nearly what I was expecting from what was described I was going to feel. Assuming the next two to three weeks play out according to plan, this will be one of the best things I’ve ever done.
Best wishes to those struggling! I truly hope it works out for all of you.

I HAVE SAME PROBLEM AFTER DAY 4 FEEL LIKE I NEED A BM BUT IT HURTS SO BAD THAT I FEEL LIKE IM GONNA RUPTURE SOMETHING I HOPE YOUR PROBLEM GETS BETTER SOON
Day 7 still bleeding BM feels like Razor blades no pain medication was prescribed for me. This sucks at this point I'm sorry I got this done
Had this done the hard way (Milligan-Morgan) about 1 year ago. Yes, the first days were hard,BM was painful, but, as posted before by another contributor, the fear I got after having read this thread was far worse than the pain! I was prescribed Oxycodone and I had a compassionate surgeon (told me he had this done on himself). It was bearable, really. I once had a toothache that had been far worse.
Everything is fine now, no problems, no hemorrhoids, no pain.
Would do this again in a heartbeat, if necessary.

I did both repair the fissure and performed doppler technique with the internal piles. I am just one week post op . No more bleeding but frequent bm so far and the urge to go and the feeling like you still have to empty your bowels is not nice.
I still agree you should have fixed the fissure during the sugery.
Hope you get well soon.

I had mine July 20,2018 I am still in pain and have such a hard time trying to pass a BM with blood unless I take a laxative I take the stool softener they told me to take it doesn’t work so I have to take a stronger med I feel like they sewed me up to tight.
I really hope I have an experience like yours next week!!
I had my surgery Monday 3/18/2019. Today is 3/24/2019, 6 days in. 46yo male, generally healthy, with 23bmi.
Keep in mind that if you are considering this surgery, and you found this thread, it is not a representative sample. Only people having intense pain and concerns are posting here.
Yesterday I was feeling pretty good. I have been using the hot tub 5x a day, and taking my nerve blocker and hydrocodone pills and stool softener on schedule. This morning I felt 'hung over' from the meds I assume. That went away and I felt decent, with minimal spotting on my makeshift diaper paper towel. That is, I felt.well until a bowel movement at 1630 today which felt like I was passing a bowling ball made of wire brushes. There was a lot of blood, but not more than my pre-op problem presented. Since then I have rinsed with a shower wand, soaked in the tub twice, and tried every position, but persists in a lot of pain. 8/10. No bleeding. I just took my meds, and expect it to subside, but am now terrified of my next bowel movement!
After a BM, I feel I have partially given birth, and the shoulders are now stuck.
Sleep is difficult. I have found that a 2am hot tub (and a 4am and ...) Helps, as does a long, hot shower to relax all of the midsection muscles after a BM. Painkillers are a requirement after a BM if I expect to sleep.

I never fill these sort of things out by I think my story is helpful so I have to share
I'm 42 yr old Male, had hemrroids going back to my early 20s late teens. They progressively got worse and by my 30s it was a weekly event weather eating and drinking right or whatever. In my 20s I thought it was brought on by weekend partying but I dont drink now and they have become bad. Every day every other day by 2pm they start protruding from my rear and I find myself looking for a place to push it back in. Awful i know trust me.
I go to a doctor in allentown pa, good guy who inspects my rear says I have 2 large hemmys. Gonna take 1 off with band, come back in 2 weeks and do the other, simple. He does the 1st one at 3pm friday and by Saturday 2am I'm in death style torture pain. I'll spare the personal anguish but if your reading this you get it. Couldnt pee, couldn't sit, sleep, ate 40 10 mg vicaden pills in 48 hrs and no help
By Monday now 4am in the morning my wife rushed me to emergency room. SAME doctor is available because he saw a message about my case by the nurse my wife called.
So at this point its 100% surgery, he can even touch my bunghole with a feather without me yelling
Goes on and removes 2 GOLF BALL size hemmys that were both freaking out because he placed the band around the base of both instead of one.
Right now I'm 2 days into post op, less 2 golf balls... I'm still in big time pain, cant poop, ass is killen ne, there are signs of slightly less pain but my rear end has just been stretched evry which way in the last 72 hrs
Will update

I was curious if you could give a follow up on how you are doing today - 7/12/19 - years now after you left this post. IF this reaches you or anyone else can reply to give a long term follow up that would be helpful, as I am going through this now and I am looking for some hope. ( 9 days post op)
