They will flare from time to time. Diet helps control them. I have had them forever and with my second pregnancy had a tremendous episode that brought me to the OB/GYN in agony. The nurse practitioner looked at me and said, "Oh, yeah - we can't help with this. You need a proctologist." That episode subsided (thank GOD) but after my delivery, deciding no more kids, and a couple more uncomfortable flare ups - I opted for surgery.
Oh, Holy Mother of GOD, that hurt like a bitch. I woke up from surgery asking for more pain killers and stayed on them round the clock for 2 weeks. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. My husband even says that is the worst pain he's ever seen someone in and he's witness 2 deliveries. I hated my proctologist after that; I still have a few skin tag type issues there and the doc offered to removed them in the office after all my swelling subsided. I looked at him like he was on crack and plainly stated I never intended to see him again, Thank you very much.
Mine have been cycling like that for almost 4 yrs now, ever since I had DD.
This. Mine have flared up again with a vengeance in this pregnancy. I've had some periods of relief, but I fully expect pushing out these babies to exacerbate the problem again.
I would really like to poop without bleeding a little, someday.
I dream big.
I know, right? I told my H when that happens we can have anal sex again. He is all of a sudden very concerned about the state of my butt.
Lol.
I also had surgery to remove internal hemorrhoids. I found the prep to be worse than the procedure itself- a lot like a colonoscopy. That said, I think I have new ones inside as a result of this pg. Suppositories are a godsend. Wear a pantyliner.
I use witch hazel pads. Like, I'd fold one in half like a taco and stick it in my crack for a few. Or, I will wrap an ice cube in a square of paper towel and stick that in my crack and sit on it, on a towel. It's pretty effective. I get bad 'roids. They get worse when I'm stressed. I'm sorry you have them. Maybe sit in a nice cool bath to reduce some inflammation. I'm sure pg 'roids are different, but mine get worse when I don't exercise, eat a lot of nuts, or a lot of spicy food.
I have to try this. I wipe with them, but never leave them for long.
