A member asked:
What to do if i had a hemorrhoidectomy a week ago. i'm sore with alot of drainage. when can i expect this to subside?

2-3 weeks: Would not be a surprise. Many persons ask questions on HEALTHTAPS - which is fine, BUT you also should have asked your surgeons! their staff! and get printed discharge instructions to avoid anxious moments before we answer.
