I just wanted to share. For anyone who is scared to go in for the surgery, do not think any longer!!!
I am only 1 day post op and I feel normal!!!! I have had the best experience. Ever since waking up the pain was less than living with a fissure. Ask me any questions

What stage of healing are you at now? I had anal skin tag removed the same day as you and thought healing was going well but now there is swollen red lump, it is painful to sit and the leakage has given me a rash

Hello.
I had a rough week! After I posted this, the pain begun.
I also had the skin tag removed.
Now - a week later, I am much better. No pain during the day and very minimal after BM.
I do not have much swelling but I bleed during BM. Not sure if this is normal, my doctor seems to think its ok.
Did you have LIS too? Or just tag removal?

Glad to see you happy. I sure slowly with Time it will get even better. My only issue which is bothering me is that after bM there is lot of pain with burning sensation that was not their before LIS I guess may be it is the tag site. But the pain subsides quickly within a minute or two, that's a relief. There was pain yesterday but it is not there today. Sitz bath helps with it, thanks to that
