How long does it take to heal after hemorrhoid surgery

Hemorrhoid surgery is a relatively minor procedure, but it is equally important to pay attention to your diet and life after surgery, especially in terms of food choices and post-operative bowel movements. It takes a few days to recover from hemorrhoid surgery. Patients with a quick recovery can return to normal in 2-3 days, slower ones take about 1 month, and some may take 3 months to 6 months. These vary from person to person, because of the physical problems of each person, as well as the different choices of surgery, plus the recovery after surgery, so the time is not certain. Usually, pay attention to a light diet, avoid spicy and stimulating food, eat more vegetables and fruits, have regular bowel movements every day, keep the bowels open, wash the anus frequently and keep it dry, which is very helpful to recover normally after surgery.
