What Causes Yellowish Smelly Discharge From Hemorrhoid Post Ligation?
I had a rubber band ligation procedure done on one of my hemorrhoid 4 days ago. I am still in a lot of discomfort but now have a very strong/ strange odor and yellowish discharge coming from the area. Is that part of the healing process or do I have an infection?

Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Strong yellow discharge from the haemorrhoids post surgery is likely due to infection. You should consult your operating surgeon to get properly examined and treated.
