Its 2 weeks that i have had my anal fistula op. Healing is going well. My next appointment with my specialist is on monday.

I go twice a day for wound cleaning /plugging. My wound is quite big. What is making me worry is. Now i got home and im having pulsating/beating pain inside my wound. It comes and goea. Has anyone had this after surgery??

    Hi , I've had 9 surgies up to now with mine but luckily I haven't had any packing dome for about 2 years as they didn't need to go deep . I used take 2 tramadol half hour before my appointment before they started packing it seems to calm me down and take away any pain before they start prodding and poking it the pulse feeling is normal like a heart beat try taking the pain killers they may make u sleep but u feel no pain as your sleeping . hope its alright advice there is nothing more can be done I'm afraid and try breathing through the pain in your nose and out your mouth .
