Many years ago, I had surgery in my rectum. I was not told about eating certain things and taking stool softeners, etc. and let me tell you that was the most excruciating pain I have ever had to endure while I was healing.
I have been told by my doctor that I need to have hemorrhoid surgery since my internal hemorrhoids are bleeding. I have been trying to get info on the different procedures, the risks and recuperative time involved. The surgeon's office said I needed to have a consult and I could ask all of my questions there.
Well, I don't what to waste my time or theirs and I certainly don't want to wast my money on a myriad of consults trying to find a surgeon that knows all of the types of procedures that are out there.
Can someone tell me...that has actually gone through this, what type of procedure it was (banding [rubber/metal], laser, excision)?...how was the recuperation...how long before you could have anal sex after the surgery and any other tidbits that you learned by having this done.
Thank you for you help.
