Question
Hello doctor,
I had hemorrhoid surgery 5 months ago, I try to eat a lot of vegetables and fruits, sometimes it is difficult to go to the toilet before. Nowadays, it is very difficult to defecate in the past few days, sitting for an hour, the stools are small and flat. So the doctor told me it was difficult to pass stools after 5 months of hemorrhoid surgery, is it an anal stenosis? Thank you.

Hello,
With the question “It is difficult to defecate after 5 months of hemorrhoid surgery, is the anal stenosis? ”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:
This is an abnormal condition. Chances are you have anal stenosis after hemorrhoid surgery. You should see a gastroenterologist to examine the anal area, anorectal examination is a simple method to evaluate anal stenosis. Anal dilation is the first step in treating a stenosis, and if that fails, surgery may be required.
If you still have questions about the difficulty of defecation after 5 months of hemorrhoid surgery, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
