Sphincteroctomy healing advice please...

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi, I had a lateral sphinc. 10 days ago. My symptoms were probably not as severe as others on here - no bleeding, soreness and burning and itching.

I've had none of the above since the op, but just yesterday I'm getting 'sensations' that feel like the symptoms of fissure - but to a lesser degree. Just mildly uncomfortable.

Is this normal?
