Brief Answer:
Not uncommon, observe only at this time!

Detailed Answer:
HI and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this blood clots that you have reported. It is not uncommon to report this after hemorrhoidectomy as inflammatory reactions of the urethra following surgery can lead to such. This will only be of concern if it lasts beyond say 5days and causes difficulties urinating. For now, monitor only, drink much water and I anticipate spontaneous resolution of these symptoms.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
