How To Heal A Fistula Wound Faster? - #60340
I am trying to wrap my head around this whole Kshar Sutra recovery pain thing. Had the treatment done a few weeks ago for a fistula, and honestly, the recovery pain is kinda rough. Like, how long is this supposed to last? I thought I’d be feeling better by now but the discomfort is still there, especially after sitting for a while. I really thought the pain would be gone by now, but it’s like a constant reminder that something happened down there, you know? I keep wondering if this is normal. I have read a bit about Kshar Sutra recovery pain online, but everyone seems to have a different experience. Some say it’s pretty manageable, but for me, it feels like a lot sometimes. Also, how can I heal this fistula wound faster? Are there specific things I should be doing or avoiding? I’m worried this could take forever or even come back after surgery, which honestly freaks me out! What’s the typical timeline here for healing? Just trying to figure out if I’m on the right track or if I should be doing something differently. Any advice would be super helpful!
