has anyone had hemorrhoid surgery what was recovery like?

Hello! It all depends upon how the hemorrhoid’s removed. Have you already have it done? If not, I will tell you a little bit about the procedure.
Before removing the hemorrhoid, you may decide if you want a local or general anesthesia. You will lie down in a position that exposes your rectum. A surgery may be performed with a knife, laser or cautery pencil. Incision will be made around the hemorrhoid and the veins will be tied to prevent bleeding and the hemorrhoid cut off. Your wound will be probably sewn but can be left open as well. They may out some gauze over it.
You will get all the necessary information about how to act after the operation. You may be given painkillers, stool softeners, advised on a diet and hot tubs to relieve the pain.
You will be able to drive within a week but full recovery won’t be until the 2nd or 3rd week. Some patients even take up to 2 months. Don’t lift anything heavy until you heal!
