Non-stop brown discharge after surgery

I had my hemorrhoid surgery with laser on September 18 this year. Three internal hemorrhoids were removed. I am 2 months post-op and still having brown discharge. Some days it's less, some days it's more, but it never stops. I have been doing kegel exercises four times every day for the past month with the hope that it will help my inner anal sphincter strengthen. But it feels like it will never stop and I'll never recover. It's mentally killing me. Any one experiencing the same problem? Any advice?

    If you go back and read some of the earlier posts on this site you'll find quite a few discussions on the yellow / brown discharge.

    It generally stops at around 2 months.

    Its a pity the surgeons don't advise you on this as it can be quite a worry.

      I have seen those discussions. My discharge has already been ongoing for two months, and it doesn't seem like it will stop anytime soon. I fear it might take more than several months, perhaps even over a year. The issue is that I'm uncertain whether I'm healing or not.
