post haemorrhoidectomy bowel movement size?
Posted , 4 users are following.
its been 7 days since the op. No pain to speak of, discharge is minimal. My concern is BM size. Before the op they were brown and had a
sizeable girth.
Post op they are orange (probably the Fybogel drink) but a lot narrower. We are talking the cross section of a thumb. Passing them takes a lot of effort, particularly when the mantra is "don't strain". Problem I the pressure bearing dow

the problem is the pressure at the small of my back. It's not ignorable and when I do pass a BM then I still feel there is more to come. Invariably there is 30 minutes later and it takes a full 3 hours or so to empty the bowels in stages.
luckily there is no pain but I was wondering if there was anybody else in the same boat?

Mr Sorebutt, reading the procedures you have had, you've earnt your name.
I was worried about stenosis but they aren't pencil thin like other people's and maybe they'll bulk back out over time. All movements are soft, and I'm more than regular, 9-10:30 is almost non stop poop time, with a quick reasonable one in the evening. I'm so glad they aren't painful, just exhausting and time consuming. Maybe if I cut down on the fybogel to one sachet a day and see what happens?
I was just hoping for a bit of light as this tunnel seems a bit longer than I thought after a few bad mornings.
