This topic is about a person who had surgery to remove their rectum and anal canal, with their anus stitched shut. Despite this, they are experiencing unexpected bleeding and what seems to be stool leaking from the closed area. They are puzzled about how this could happen and are seeking advice from others who might have had similar experiences.
Here are some helpful insights and advice shared by others:
1. Everyone agrees that it's crucial to seek immediate medical attention. Bleeding and suspected stool leakage from a stitched anus should be checked by a surgeon or at least a primary-care doctor as soon as possible.
2. If the original surgeon is not available or does not respond, it might be a good idea to consult a different doctor for a second opinion.
