3 days post hemorrhoidectomy

Posted , 2 users are following.

so im sitting at 3 days post op. now how can i describe it. bloody painful. it feels like i have given birth to a 10lb baby out of my bum and its torn every inch open with its fingernails.

the night of my surgery was awful, no one explained that i would have no control of my bowels. i was so embarrassed. yes this happened 3 times that first night in hospital. i am pretty tough when it comes to pain and i needed morphine to get me through.

i can get through the hours of the day but when theres an urge to poop i know the pain is about to come its about 14 out of 10.

there is lots of blood and my stools are loose. im showering or bathing after every bowel motion so i must admit im thoroughly clean.

anyone else currently going through this tight now with me
