A member asked:
Will going back to work one week after hemorrhoid surgery affect my recovery time?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Usually not: Unless you job requires prolonged standing or heavy lifting (over 25 pounds) going back to work in a week should be okay. You can help the doctor determine by how you feel and your knowledge of what the job requires. You may still have a sense of urgency, so the availability of toilet facilities may also detern=mine how soon you return to work.

No: It will only hurt while you are sitting.
