Never say never: It sounds like per restarting exercising, anal pain is causing distress following fistula repair surgery. Best would be to start with your surgeon in order to make sure you are cleared to restart physical exercise and second to confirm with your primary doc that no other conditions may interfere. Changing the type and intensity of exercise would be next under the direction of a physical trainer.
