Anal pain after a few weeks of hemorrhoidectomy is a concern?

Ask
Hello doctor. Dear doctor, my mother is 41 years old and has had hemorrhoids for many years and a few weeks ago she had surgery to remove them. But after 1 week of going home to recuperate, my mother felt terrible pain in the anus. She touched it and saw that there was a lump, and when she looked, she saw a protruding faucet. I'm very worried and hope the doctor advises that anal pain after a few weeks of hemorrhoidectomy is okay? My mother now has no blood in her bowel movements. The hospital made an appointment for a follow-up visit in 1 month. I am very worried about my mother having complications after hemorrhoid surgery. I thank you very much, Doctor.

Hello,
If you have anal pain after a few weeks of hemorrhoidectomy surgery, you need to take your mother to the doctor soon, not wait 1 month or contact the surgeon to your mother now.
If you still have questions about the diagnosis of complications after hemorrhoidectomy and treatment, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for examination. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health. Best regards!
