Question
Hello doctor,
I have had 2 longo hemorrhoid surgery, sclerotherapy and electrocautery. Just had electrocautery surgery to patch anal ulcer for more than 1 month. Currently, when having a bowel movement, it is painful and sometimes bleeding. The anus is very narrow, the stools are very small. So the doctor told me how to treat women with anal stenosis and bloody stools? Should anal dilatation? I thank the doctor.

Hello,
With the question “How is the treatment of women with anal stenosis, bloody stools? , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Your situation, the doctor thinks a lot about the case of complications of anal stenosis after surgery. This is a complication that can be encountered after surgery to treat hemorrhoids (in varying degrees and frequencies depending on the condition of the pre-operative disease, the surgical method/procedure used). In most cases, anal stenosis will be examined and evaluated by a gastroenterologist. The first treatment is usually an anal dilation (dilation in the operating room under the effect of local anesthesia). if the stenosis is severe, dilate in the operating room or self-dilate at home if the stenosis is mild). In case of very severe stenosis and failure of anal dilation, the doctor will consider appointing an annectomy, cutting a part of the anal sphincter to resolve the anal stenosis.
You should note the dietary regimen such as adding more fiber, drinking enough water to avoid constipation, because constipation will aggravate the disease, which can cause acute anal fissures, bleeding,...
If you still have questions about women with anal stenosis, bloody stools, 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.
