Discharge after 2 months
I had a perianal abscess drainage surgery in June and then fistuletomy with internal lateral sphincterotomy in July. The wound is almost healed, but not completely as i get occasional bleeding during bowel movements. When i don't apply any cream, i notice this white discharge around the anus, its white in color, no smell, and moderate pain due to bleeding. This discharge appears mostly when i get bleeding. Is this normal when a wound is fresh or is this an infection? I got a sono fistulogram done and there is no mention of pus accumulation. Please advise.
