How long have you worn them

Are you having, or have you had a Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS)? Please share your experiences here, or ask any questions.

He certainly is and he told me I'm a proper Dr which means I've got to like him! :D You do want someone you trust when dealing with those delicate areas! I hope your Pilondial Sinus gets resolved soon without surgery. My wife's sister had to have surgery for PS some years ago and she recovered quickly.

I had a sheet with questions I asked him after the surgery and he answered all of them patiently. The nurse's aid was amused by all my questions. I found all the staff there great. I'm trying to be patient after my surgery (Botox, sentinel pile removal and what he called a minimal fissurectomy, it burns like crazy after BMs so I'm disagreeing with minimal for the time being :) ) and it's only three days since my surgery which means I shouldn't expect to be up and running around. I've been out for a 15 minute walk today and get by on paracetamol so I should probably not complain!

Have a speedy recovery from the PS!

Hi BU
Yes my pack said to wear them but I'm a bit rebellious and decided that as I was only out for about 15/20 mins then I didn't really need to wear them...I'm bad lol but nothing happened and I had to shopping at Asda the next day and really didn't feel like walking round the supermarket in those horrid things

But MPB they are so appealing! Rebellious is good! I'll ditch them when going out if the weather turns nice enough for shorts. I'm sweating like a pig right now as I've been out for a 20 minute stroll and it's warm with them under the tracksuit bottoms. I'm sporting a casual look when I recover from the surgery.

Oh gosh yes what a great fashion statement that would have been lol
Can't imagine wearing them for longer than I did actually as they are so uncomfortable and especially if it's warm.
Casual is a good luck for after surgery lol

I don't find them too uncomfortable which is fortunate. The surgery is an excellent excuse to lounge about, get the wife to tend to my every need and sport a casual look! ;)
