It's been about 2.5 months since my laser piles surgery, but the swollen veins near my anus haven't fully gone down yet. My doctor says everything's fine, but I'm still worried should I be concerned? Is this normal healing time?
It may take time to subside completely, do continue sitz bath 3 times daily and visit once to surgeon for further management

I have piles but no pain so far and my doctor recommended surgery should I consider it right away or try medication first to see if it helps
It's generally recommended to try less invasive treatments like medication before considering surgery for piles, even if your doctor recommended it. If you're not experiencing significant pain or complications, a course of medication might resolve the issue without the need for surgery. However, it's crucial to discuss your concerns and treatment options with your doctor to determine the best course of action for your specific case.
