Fistuletomy pain

2023-07-31 16:24:15
I had fistuletomy surgery with ILS on 10th July. Its been 3 weeks today. It was a minor surgery where a tunnel of 1.5cm was removed. I have stopped taking pain killers as the pain is now manageable, but there is mild pain and discomfort throughout the day, specially after defecation. Will this pain and discomfort last till the wound completely heals or is mine a exceptional case?

Usually mild pain will be there for 1month i.e. approximately until wound heals for everyone. sitz bath and laxatives give best relief from pain.
