it had improve somewhay 2 months after first lis then about one year in, it started again but no where near the pain prior to the lis. But still some inconvenience.
Went to surgeon for colonoscopy check everything out and he said fissure still but small.
So had second lis in March 6 month ago.
Still not 100% but tolerable.
Should do a follow-up with surgeon see how it's healing. Also thinking maybe get a second opinion.

the incision should heal faster than 6 weeks. Was it stitch or open?
im no surgeon but maybe get a follow up consultation.
