A member asked:
How long is the recovery period from sphincterotomy/fissurctomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
4-6 weeks: After surgery most people hate their physician the first week, dislike them the second, can mumble there name the third, and are starting to be happy they had surgery during the fourth week.
