What is the recovery time after hemorrhoidectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Days to weeks: Can be painful for days or weeks depending on each person. More discomfort maybe with standard incisional surgery & maybe less discomfort with internal stapled technique. Little or no discomfort with internal hemorrhoid banding.
