Thank you dr chung . Before stumbling to your video i was totally clueless about how to approach and heal my constipation and fissure . My dr just prescribe me medicines and never explained to me in details . Through your video i am able to eleviate my conditons within a few days. Thanks a lot once again

Your smile doc keeps hope in people.Thank you very much you re very best doctor😊

thanks alot Dr Chung. im a dietitian from nigeria. the information is very educating and impacting. im looking forward to come abroad and practice. more strenght for you sir

Dr. Chung as always, Thank you :)

Thanks for the suggestions!! Could you please do a similar video on fissure botox prep, post surgery recommendations? As well as LIS although you don't do those as often. Appreciate it!

Great advice thank you Dr 💜

Thank you for being the FIRST doctor I’ve seen to say NO to high fiber.

Do u know that I listen u daily....it's such a comfort!!!! I'm in such agony x 1 year! Finally having Lasic surgery x 6400. on 5/12. In Canada with "free healthcare" I could not get any help. Finally had to go to clinic (elective surgery) I'm bringing my US bucks to pay for it. My heart bleeds for the folks who do not have this option!

Where are you going for laser surgery and is this for anal fissure? Let me know in the same boat.

Hola Doc! I’m currently on Nifedipine but want to use oils(coconut) to lubricate. Do I apply nifedipine first followed by coconut oil? Or vice versa? Or just the nifedipine? Gracias

Dr Chung you have great videos on hemorrhoids, fissures etc. How about a video about mucosal prolapse and intussuseption. I think a lot people suffer from this and there are very few answers except questionable surgery. Love to hear your take on these rectal problems.

Thank you. I thought the same when they told my to almost double my fiber. Glad I found your channel.

When alternating with ointments and oils do you have to clean butt with soap and water before applying/alternating with products?

Porridge for breakfast, chicken soup with multi grain bread for lunch, minestrone soup with multi grain bread for dinner, did this over 9 days worked like a dream 🎉🎉🎉

Umm hey I NEED your help I'm gluten free and well cuz of the food prices I got no choice but to eat gluten in anyways in March this year I got a hermroid and it didn't really hurt but I could look at my anu3 and see it and I'm a very closed person so I didn't let the doctor see up my 💣 so they gave me medication and I took it for 7 day and then kind forgot and then during this whole year I've been getting blood out of my butt but the thing is my period is quite on a pattern yet so I didn't know what it was and today i wasn't on my period and blood came out my 💣 so I'm pretty sure I'm had it for 8 months all tho it's not popping out my 💣 what do I do?

I think this may be subjective to one’s gut microbiome! I normally used to eat a ton of white rice & chicken prior to this hemorrhoid. I followed the popular advice to increase fiber intake with Metamucil & natural sources. At first, it seemed softer, but still very bulky like my body did not digest it properly. It slowly got less & less bulky as my gut biome seemed to adjust, & is still very soft. I do believe that more than 1 glass of Metamucil a day is excessive though, when I drink more than that, I poop way too much & get irritated hemorrhoids (in combination with high fiber fruits n veggies like banana & carrots & whole grain breads/quinoa)

I had some coughing and nose blowing after my HALO, boy did that hurt. I’m wondering if that can mess up the surgeons work?

Hey doc. Thank you for your work. I have 2 anal fistulas and about to be scheduled for a surgery about eight months ago I was at 380 pounds and I had DVT and pulmonary embolism so I cut out almost all carbs out of my diet. I basically start eating carnivore diet with little bit of vegetable here there and fruit. Mostly my vegetables are fermented or cooked. what do you think about keeping eating high fat and protein diet post surgery because I don’t really want to change my diet because I lost over 100 pounds in eight months. I’m terrified of a surgery but what needs to be done is needs to be done. I know this is not medical advice, but just a comment. Thanks for your reply.

for a anal fistula surgery, what would be your comments regarding a cigarette smoker? how badly can it affect the surgery?

Hi Dr. Chung! I watched a lot of your videos. Thank you for the tips and advice. I'm day 3 into my perianal abcess recovery from surgery. When is a good time to do sitz bath in my bath tub? The bleeding has slowed. It's on my left buttock. Cut was pretty deep. The incision might still be open. We are changing the pads as needed.

Did the pain subsizde after surgery? Like less pain the before surgery? Is sitting down uncomfortable after surgery?

Prunes! Make prunes and glyserin suppostories ur friend! Soft easy going movements.clean well with organic non perfume baby wipes.

Soft poop almost diary is ur best friend hands down so get ur milk of magnesia ur magnesium pills ur laxatives ur stool softener going. I take so much of that everyday trust me the pain u can get from the first time of it trying to come out is hell so let that stuff. Do the job. Don't strain push or anything just let it happen. I wear adult diapers and yes it pooped myself but it just came out no pain. I suggest shower afterward wiping could be very pain ful. Also use wet wipes instead regular toilet paper. Keeps it better clean.

Hey dr I have a seton and thought I had to get another one turned out to be dead skin so they did a cautery how should my BM do that.

Just had hemorrhoids surgery and never ever again the pain is unholy and I had a bowl almost a a week later and I am trying not to eat besides yogurt or yelly I do not want to poop until it is better healed. The pain is not worth it. But used a lot or miralax stool softeners laxatives. I barely eat I have enough weight to OK to lose some. I still have to much pain about a week a half later. I rather have it healed more before I go. Thank u.

When can you eat popcorn,nut and seeds again? Does all the swelling need to be gone? Im 5 weeks out from surgery. Still some swelling externally,doctor says everything is healing well.

The secret 4 soft stool drink about 2 lts water a day, plums, low fibre, papaya, aloe vera, chia seeds.

What about going into a dry fast? For three days, you do not need to / barely poop.

Thank you Dr. Chung I just had my surgery this morning and am clueless of what to do and stumble on to your video and now I feel more comfortable know what I need to do. I had some chicken noodle soup earlier but only drank the broth and then I took a cap full of miraLAX and had a fiber gummy 😭😭 is this going to cause a problem when I have my first bowel movement? I’m am freaking out.

Hey Sir! I got my fissure surgery done 24 days ago..I got constipated yesterday. Today , I inserted the finger and there’s a line like structure. Has my fissure re occurred?😥😰😓

Hey doct. I'm seeing your video from india.. I have a qstion i have done fistulectomy +seton placement 1 month before... Can i go to gym now?

Please make a video on that first poop if the consistency is bulky and hard: how it feels, what to do, how much to push, how to motivate yourself, what do we do to soften it and pass it. Also how to handle the feeling of constantly having to go.

I highly recommend trying your first poop in the bath. Life changing for me after surgery. Made it easy. Almost couldn’t believe it.

I did a bowl prep then fasted 3 days and I so glad I did. I had bone broth and soft foods made a huge difference. don't eat bad food you WILL regret it.

I really dont understand. If I dont eat fiber I get constipated

m on 10th days after surgery, my butt keep tell me go to poop, but when i seat on toilet there are nothing coming out, m so confuse..! i stucked poop for a week now after first poop.. what is going Dr? greatful from Cambodia..

what about a clear liquid diet AFTER surgery, to help recovery?

Dr Chung how long is recovery ? 4-8 weeks ? They did Botox Injection and shrink 2 hemorrhoid inside first week was like i m in hell second week better now is 4 weeks and i have some bumps inside anus from the spine and that bumps my doctor she told me it will go pls answer if you can i m a truck driver i need to know how long is recovery

Don't low fiber foods cause constipation and hard stool?

OMG I Just had surgery last week and was instructed to eat a high fiber diet and to use Metamucil daily. And you talking about pain in the anus passing out type of pain. Thanks for your advice I will instantly change all that was told to me last week and hope for less pain and better results. Hopefully I didn't do anymore damage.

If you normally have a protein shake with chia, flax and some greens every morning would that be okay to continue the days after surgery? I like to make sure I get enough protein daily for vital functions (healing) and general health.

Can analgesics be taken under the tongue instead of swallowed, as to not harden the stool? 🤔

What about soluble vs insoluble fiber

I recently has hemorrhoidectomy and my ex told me to use dulcolax to make my stool like water. I didnt listen until the day after i had to go to bathroom.. it was a nightmare. I started taking it that day and my stool turned to water almost and I passed it painlessly, I did this for 10 days in a row. That is my advice to anyone getting this kind of surgery.

I thought I was doing good using wet wipes?it says 99 percent water.I'm also,bed ridden.sometimes now my skin gets irritated but I think its because of my stained pad I use.after I go to bathroom I clean myself. But I guess the stain left over makes my skin irrated. Pllus,sometimes when I clean myself,I will fart and my taint I believe its called hurts few a few seconds. But,that's on occasion. Like once every other week.but,only last a few seconds. No hemorrhoids. I'm clean.but,aren't these wipes safe?id hate to think I'm making it worse.I hate tiolet paper.but,I will go back if this is dangerous.now I just heard about water wipes, suppose to protect microbiome.

Bad experience with second banding. Have no more bowel movements. Think he banded outside, pulled part of putside in. And now this causes anal fisure andmore hemerrhoids because you have to press harder. Regret that I had this done. And only now I find out that I can get endocarditis and liver infections and even tetanus throught infection of bacteria into the blood where the scars are. Nice.

What has helped me was 2 tabs of colace and 1 pack of benefiber but only meat and cheese just so you don’t consume to Much fiber

I don't know what to do. I had a poop one day after surgery and it hurt soooo bad. But I haven't pooped again in 3 days. I feel horrible. I don't know what to do. I'm scared.
