Do I still need stool softeners (my hm has gone)

Digestive health

After 3 weeks of pain, frustration, sadness and PATIENCE, my two hm are pretty much gone (one was originally thrombosed). I am still applying ointment and taking stool softeners 2x a day but was wondering if these were still necessary now? Maybe as a precautionary measure? I don’t want them to come back!!! Thank you

I would stop the stool softener but check with your surgeon.

Are you getting an appointment with my surgeon for him to check that everything is okay ?

Where was your operation?

I didn’t have an operation

I take 3 stool softeners daily. I’ve been doing this for years. I’m curious what others do, too!

Make sure you eat a high fibre diet then and drink lots of water.
