Post hemorrhoidopexy complications. Gym?

Today is day 34 after my stapled hemorrhoidopexy procedure along with laser. I had a prolapsed hemorrhoid for 5 years which used to come out only during defecation and needed to be manually pushed in. The prolapse outside the anus had grown to around 3 c.m in diameter. The surgeon had excised the hemorrhoid and has applied laser on the anal mucosa which is visible in the attached picture. I can still feel a distinct lump there. The surgeon, at the 2 week follow up said that it would shrink in a month. But I have stopped believing this. Can an online video consultation with another surgeon help or should I physically visit another surgeon who is an expert in this area? The pain has reduced mostly but due to the lump size there is a lot of discomfort. I need an opinion from the attached picture. Can I ever return back to sports and the gym? Please help. Thanks in advance. P.S: is it possible that the stapler size was inadequate in excising the hemorrhoid fully?
