I had open fistula surgery two days ago but there's still pus and blood draining from the area nonstop is this normal or could there be a problem
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's understandable to be concerned about persistent drainage after fistula surgery. While some drainage, including pus and blood, is normal in the days following surgery, continuous, heavy, and nonstop drainage could indicate a potential problem, says a doctor. It's best to consult your surgeon for evaluation and guidance

View allI had surgery last month and still can't walk much because my stitches hurt. I've noticed I'm starting to gain weight since I'm not as active. What can I do to manage this without putting too much strain on my healing body?
To manage post-surgery weight gain during a period of limited mobility, focus on a healthy, balanced diet, monitor your calorie intake, and gradually reintroduce gentle movement as tolerated. Avoid overeating or consuming excessive sugary or fatty foods. Staying hydrated and getting enough rest can also help.

My 72-year-old dad is having hernia surgery on his left side since that's the more problematic side right now. The doctor plans to only operate on the left for now will the other side likely need surgery soon after, or can it be managed without another operation?
If your dad’s hernia surgery is successful on the left side, the right side may not necessarily require surgery soon. It will depend on how the left side heals and if the right side worsens over time.

Complete recovery after stapler circumcision usually takes only 1 to 2 weeks.
