I had Fissurectomy done May 10 and it reduced my overall constant excruciating pain, but I still have the sharp mild, sometimes moderate fissure area pain. I usually feel better after sleeping at night. No bleeding. No straining for BM at all.
1. Should the fissure be better than this after almost 4 weeks? A week ago CRS said looks like it’s healing, but I feel like I’ve plateaued since about 1.5-2wks post or at best an inch improvement a day up Everest (with 1/2-3/4 inch back by end of day).
2. I had the swollen bump after that others talk about and it has gone down somewhat. CRS said it is Hemorrhoidal tissue, but that info does not change that I haven’t sat down for almost 4 weeks (been mostly standing and walking during the day). When I’ve tried the pain builds quickly and I don’t want to go back to that excruciating, hopeless place. Have others had swollen Hemorrhoidal tissue just outside the fissure area after surgery? ... not been able to sit at all?
