What Could Anal Tags Post A Hemorrhoidectomy Suggest?
I am 9 days post hemmorrhoidectomy. My problem is an anal tag that looks like hypergranulation and is raw on the end. My surgeon said this is the normal healing process but its not getting any better. Everything else is going good except the painful tag. Help.......

Hello and welcome to HCM..
The painful tags gradually subside with some pain killer medication, which your doctor will prescribe.Also a laxative can be taken and an ointment applied over the anal area twice a day.Sitz bath may be done as per doctors' advice.If you still have any doubts, you may contact me by name.
