General guidance on comfort, timing, anxiety and when to ask your surgeon about resuming sexual activity.
After anorectal surgery, sexual activity should usually wait until pain, bleeding and drainage are controlled and your surgeon confirms healing is progressing.
Anxiety, discomfort and fear of pain are common early. Avoid pressure on the surgical area and do not resume activity if it increases bleeding or pain.
Ask your surgeon for personalised timing, especially after complex fistula surgery, large piles surgery or any procedure involving wounds near the anus.
