Hello,
Post hemorrhoid surgery gangrene may be treated with regular dressing and antibiotics with local care.
This area is having less blood supply so takes time to heal.
Please consult your surgeon/ plastic surgeon he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
