Your doctor can: usually it take 3-4 weeks but your doctor during your post-op follow up apointment can tell you how you are progressing fistula healing is a little tricky because it is important to know why you did have it in the first place and is the main cause under full control or not check with your surgeon good luck thank you for using health tap
