Hi,
I am new to this forum but have found it a great source of information prior to joining, so many thanks to you all. I had a LIS surgery 3 days ago. I’ve had a chronic fissure for 5 years. I also had two skin tags removed during the surgery. I’d like to know peoples experiences in LIS recovery. I had my first bowel movement with little pain 2 days after the surgery. A lot of stinging afterwards. (Sitz bath helped). Today, there was more burning (not sharp pain) during my bowel movement and some blood in the toilet. But, not as much burning afterwards. I’m assuming this is common but wondered of others could share their experiences and how long it took to not have blood in the toilet. I’m currently in benefiber, two stool softeners and took a magnesium supplement. Thinking the magnesium might have made it too soft. Anyway, any advice you could give me would be much appreciated. Thank you!
