How long can traditional anal fistula surgery be effective?

Generally, it takes about two months. People who are discharged after surgery can go to work without manual labor.

2. Although it is a minor operation, the muscles and tissues in the anus grow very slowly. It takes at least one month from the completion of the operation to full recovery. In addition to drug treatment, we should also strengthen the nursing of anus, ensure that the anus is clean after defecation, and clean the anus with running water. Because the anal wound hurts when touched, it can't be wiped with paper at all. Moreover, wiping with paper will only wipe the stool into the folds and wounds of the anus, leading to bacterial reproduction and aggravating inflammation and edema. So wash the anus with running water after defecation every time. Some hospitals will give patients after operation an anorectal rehabilitation suit, which contains a hand-held washing clothes, and the anus can be washed with clear water after defecation. If you don't want to return to the palace after discharge, you should take it with you when you go out to work and rinse it after each defecation.

3. The traditional Chinese medicine commonly prescribed by the hospital allows patients to sit in the bath for at least one month after operation, and they must sit in the sitting position. Never put an ordinary basin on the ground and sit in the bathtub, otherwise the wound may tear. When sitting down after surgery, be sure to put the anus overhead to avoid pain and edema caused by oppression. The anorectal rehabilitation bag contains an anal hydrotherapy device that can be placed on the toilet for sitting and bathing, and a painless breathable pad that can overhead the anus. However, hospitals are generally more expensive, so you can prepare yourself in advance, but Taobao sells more. After all, it is for nursing. It's best to choose official genuine products, and don't buy miscellaneous brands for petty gain.
