I had LIS on January 7th 2020. Today is 6 weeks post surgery. In week 5 I developed a really bad itch that doesn't want to go away. After emptying by bowels I still have some blood at least every other day, if not every day. the amount is very small on the TP. I feel like it is coming from the incision site, and also have pain from the incision site still. I was told 4-6 weeks I would be 100%, but i feel the bleeding, itching, and some pain i'm nowhere near 100%. has anyone else experienced this post 6 weeks??? The small amounts of blood really concern me. I didnt bleed this much with the fissure alone. It was only every few weeks.

    Sorry to hear you haven't healed. Is your diet where it needs to be? Also, was the surgery performed by a general surgeon or a colorectal surgeon? I'm sorry I don't have post op advice. I'm getting the LIS in two days. I hope you feel better.
