i had hemorrhoid surgery 4 months ago and am still having some bleeding with bowel movements. i take colace and miralax which the surgeon prescribed. the surgeon said that the surgeon who had done my previous hemorrhoid surgery many years ago took too much anal tissue and my anal canal is very narrow and needs more time to heal. he did do a rectal exam under anesthesia 3 weeks ago and said it looked ok and was healing and has given me until aug 23rd and if i still have some rectal bleeding will send me to a colo rectal specialists. have you ever heard of this type of situation where it might take longer to heal. the surgeon said the bleeding can be caused by scar tissue. he did do a colonoscopy before the surgery and all was ok. I need someone to talk to about this. i still take sitz baths. i have very little discomfort and seldom have pain and try to keep my bowel movements soft. i would appreciate some feedback or someone to talk to. sincerely marg messick
Hmmmm, I had my surgery 3 1/2 weeks ago, I also am still having bleeding.It is so discouraging.Good luck to you!
Hi,
I am marg messick and wondered how you are doing? my bleeding has cut down but I still take alot of medicine to help me go. Its going on the 5th month and I see my doctor aug 23rd and if I still am having problems hes sending me to a colo rectal specialists. The surgeon said that the doctor who did the samre surgery many years ago took too much anal tissue and left the canal very narrow and its taking long to heal. we'll see,but its frustrating and discouraging. let me know how you are doing and what medicine do you take to help you. marg
Hi Marg,hope you are doing well. As for me,it has been 4 weeks and I still have small amount of bleeding woth each bm. I have a "raw" feeling also. Were you still having bleeding at 4 weeks? I am scared.
