I made my LIS August 1-2019, so i'm now 11 weeks out of surgery.
I still feel the fissure during BM, not painful, i just feel it still there, probably good sign of recovery because i wasn't feeling it this much during the first 4 - 6 weeks. I barely feel it during the rest of the day after the BM or sting a lil bit (like 0.5 out of 10 of that pain scale).
I wish i knew i should put a small piece of cotton into my anus to not let that leak mess with my cheek butt (like yours, the monkey butt) to absorb any leak or extra humdity. Well, during 6 weeks i have been struggling with that monkey butt till someone told me to use water & salt to wash with after each BM & one more time before going to bed so no more unbearable itching during your sleep & everything was great after like 5 - 6 days. I won't advise you to use the water + salt now since your incision site is still not healed , it will take 6 - 8 weeks (according to my personal experience) to fully heal, mine still didn't get that regular color like the other skin, it still has that yellowish line, but the leak from there is finished, incision site was healed for me now (after 6 - 8 weeks).
Don't rush things up yet, careful while sitting, it takes time, 1 month you'll feel more than great actually. The fissure & tag removed area are the most stubborn part in this LIS thing. My friend told me 4 months is great to really say it was successful or not, not before that. I give mine 6 months to evaluate it with strict diet of course.
This LIS thing is all about your diet, your Diet is your Meds now (that's what my doctor told me after 2 weeks out of LIS).
Good luck with your journey, i'm so glad i found this forum too, lots of things didn't know about till i read the ones who made their LIS & shared their experience.
