Pencil thin stool
I am undergoing treatment for anal fissure & piles for past few days. I have undergone physical examination & proctoscopy from Gen Surgeon. The pain has subsided but the stool is pencil thin & feels like there is obstruction. The surgeon did not point out towards obstruction in the anal region. Is the pencil thin stool because of fissure & piles?
