A member asked:
I had anal fistula surgery 1 month ago. im having hard time controlling gas. happens on its own. will this go away with time or should i visit doc?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should improve: As the anal sphincter continues to heal and strengthen control should improve. In the meantime,avoiding gassy foods and taking simethicone after meals should reduce the amount of intestinal gas formation.
