Today is 6 days since hemorhoidectomy. Still painful and light bleeding with movement (sitting up from bed etc.)
Is this normal?
It is completely normal . I had it last month and it was for 3 weeks i had bleeding. Don't worry. Do as many sitz bath as possible
I had one done 2 months ago, and the first couple of weeks were rough, but hang in there, the bleeding will slowly stop, Just don't do anything too strenuous, and take as many siltz baths as possible they do help.
Although i never really used any when i had mine done, I just stood alot, and layed down alot, but after the 2 months it should heal up all good.
My advice, just stay possible, don't stress or worry too much about it, and it should be fine.
Hope all goes well for you.
At 6 days you are still in the bad stage, totally normal. Takes 2-3 weeks to get over the worst of it. It takes 6-8 weeks to get back to mostly "normal"
Hi notuzin I hope you are doing well
I know it’s not easy but it will be I had my operation 4 weeks ago and tomorrow is my 1st time check up with my surgeon
The 1st week was so painful that I lost 5 kg I didn’t eat much I bearly could walk from my bed to bathroom I cry more then anything but it went every day better and better what you going trough is all normal and all ok try to take as many bath and try to relax when you go to number 2 I know it’s not easy but try as much u can and don’t push coz then is painful I try not to but it was just by self pushing me to push I wish you all the best for recovery and all patient here
If any one want to ask me anything abt recovery pls do
All the best to all
Thanks for all the encouraging responses. I am 12 days out and the bleeding has basically stopped. No real pain, just general discomfort and itching.
Stopped pain medication. Follow up with surgeon on 8/13. I can feel a small lump at the entrance of a us. Hope it is normal. Also, do you think that the surgeon will have to use an instrument to look deep into my rectum for the follow up? Not looking forward to that 😥
That’s good to hear
I don’t think he will use anything
When I went to my check up he didn’t even look coz he said I believe it’s still sore and I said yes it is lol so we just spoke abt everything and I was just telling him how my recovery is going
I am now 5 weeks but still bit of blood comes with is making me so nervous I don’t like seeing blood but he said it’s all normal
I hope you are all well
