Hi all!

I am male from Tanzania,i did fistuloctomy(no seton) three weeks ago,the wound outside is almost 98% healed but there is a small tiny hole still discharging. I returned to my surgeon two days ago,but he insisted healing was good. Has anyone reached the same stage as mine in the course of healing because this discharge thing worries me so much.

    Yes Im there myself. The surgery went good but theres still a tiny hole where the scar is and drains daily. Its not alot but enough to keep you irritated. I saw my doctor a few weeks ago amd he said everything was grrat and hed see me in a year. Im calling him soon to re examine the scar

      Hi @kyle09277

      Today marks my 2 months post-op, I'm at the same stage that you mentioned above, tiny hole still discharging.

      Have your wound healed ever since ? how long did it take approximately?
