Brief Answer:
Take adequate fluids & metronidazole

Detailed Answer:
hello

Thank you for getting back with the answers. After hemorrhoidectomy such discomfort may occur. I would recommend you following things:

> Take lots of fluids( water, juices)
> Take Metronidazole thrice a day for 5 days
> Take ecobion sachets once a day

Hopefully you will see improvement in 2-3 days. If condition remains same or aggravates then you need to visit hospital.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health !!
