It was a while ago so I don't remember the exact timeline. I got better for a week but then got an infection which lengthened the healing time. The problem was that the doctor stitched it all up leaving no room for drainage. Plus, the perianal area is full of germs which didn't help matters. Do you have any stitches externally?
