Hi Everyone,
I'm a longtime lurker on this site and am in need of some support. I had the LIS surgery 5 months ago and still have constant low-level discomfort. I didn't really have a normal fissure. My issue wasn't pain while going to the bathroom and I rarely ever bled. Instead, I had pain while sitting and an internal itch and general discomfort. I had the LIS surgery last February and I still feel the discomfort. It doesn't itch as much as it did and my surgeon says things look healed, but I am still very tender (particularly when sitting on soft surfaces) and have a constant awareness of my sensitivity/discomfort in this area. My question: did anyone else feel this way 5 months after LIS surgery? Am I still healing? Is this normal? I just want to feel normal again and not think about this all the time.
Thank you.
