A member asked:
Are bowel movements painful after surgery for an anal fistulotomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Post Surgery Pain: Yes. Of course. There is no ifs ands or buts about this. I would imagine your surgeon gave you some instructions and advice about your post operative course and what to expect.
