Question 1

I had laser surgery for piles and fissure on 29th September but still haven't passed any stool only gas and some bloody discharge. Is this normal or should I be worried? What can I do to ease this?

Accepted Answer

After laser surgery for piles and fissures, it's not uncommon to experience delayed bowel movements or mild discomfort. If you're concerned, consult your surgeon for advice. You can try fiber supplements, warm baths, and stool softeners to help ease discomfort.

Question 2

I've seen studies saying traditional piles surgery has better long-term results and fewer recurrences compared to stapling surgery. If that's the case, why do doctors still recommend stapling surgery when traditional surgery is considered the gold standard?

Question 3

Had fissure surgery 5 days ago and noticing yellow discharge on the gauze pad is mucous discharge normal after this type of procedure? Just a bit worried since it's my first time dealing with this

Accepted Answer

A small amount of mucous or serous discharge (yellowish, watery fluid) on the gauze pad after anal fissure surgery is generally normal as part of the healing process. This type of drainage is often present for a few days to a week as the wound heals. However, it's important to monitor for signs of infection, such as increased pain, redness, swelling, or pus. If you are concerned about the discharge or have any other concerns, it's best to contact your doctor or surgeon for advice

I'm dealing with some mild rectal prolapse and I'm not sure which type of doctor would be best to see about it. Could you tell me what treatment usually involves?
