Swelling 17 days post-hemorrhoidectomy doesn’t appear to be going down
Posted , 1 user is following.
I'm on day 17 after having two hemorrhoids removed, partially for aesthetic purposes because I had two small skin tags that were permanent. The doc assured me he would make it look very "pretty" lol. Swelling has progressively gotten worse since about day 4. It looks worse than before. I went in to see him today and he said he expects the swelling to go down, but if it doesn't, he can remove the new skin tags. This makes me feel like I went through hell for nothing because I'm ending up with almost the same result since the hemorrhoids themselves weren't bothering me too much prior.
Does anyone who's had the procedure remember how long it took for the swelling to start going down and completely go down? I'm so anxious 😕
