Hey,
so the bleeding has stopped. Its been 6days. I wouldn't work post 3 days. It not painful at all just discomfort.  I went out almost everyday used baby wipes...and took showers twice a day...the pain pill were a waste of money...the only thing that hurt out of this entire process was the local Anastasia. ..but if I can do it, anyone else can do it. If you guys have any questions feel free to ask

Mine is white and is sitting on a hemmoroid. I have a colonscopy planned for Feb 20. The doc will see it for sure. Should I go to the dermotologist first to get it removed?

Hey!  just had surgery for anal warts a month ago, and it REALLY isnt as bad as everyone makes it out to be. (I know this sounds stupid to say) but all it is is a pain in the butt... the doctor gave me percocet for the pain which I thought was a little dramatic, I didnt take any. It didnt hurt right after, but that night it hurt really bad, I took 2 tylenoll and the plain was extremely minimal. After that it was easy, just make sure you do a sitz bath to clean it about  2 times a day, or just sit in a hot bath for like 20 minutes if you dont have a sitz - you dont want the area to get infected.

You were so right! It is uncomfortable but the pain is 2-3 on a scale of 1-10

I've never had anal warts, but from my own experiences and from reading those of others here, you don't have much to worry about.  Once you've had it you'll realize that you blew the fear way out of proportion and you'll wish you could go back and do it all over again but this time saving yourself all the mental anguish you generated for no reason.  good luck on your surgery.
