Relax.: Pain after fistula surgery is inevitable. The first three to five days following the surgery can be especially uncomfortable. Your doctor will likely prescribe pain medication to help get you through the first few days. You may experience nausea and vomiting, as these are common side effects of prescription pain medication. As soon as the pain begins to ease up, try using over-the-counter pain med
