sorry this post may be too much information. but I'm looking for advice. my bottom is very very sore it's stinging like crazy and when I go to the loo to empty my bowels the toilet bowl water is completely red. I think I may have piles internally and can't get to doctors now until next week. is there anything that can help soothe it?? xx
I swear by which hazel, soak a cotton ball and place it there leave over night, takes the pain away and shrinks the piles, was a life saver during pregnancy and still is now and drink plenty of water xx
Anusol works well, drink plenty of water to keep stools soft. You can't use just any haemorrhoid treatment because some are not suitable for pregnant ladies. I feel for you, they're not nice xXx
Ring 111 & they'll advice you to go to A&E. That's what they did to my partner xx
I had that at 23 weeks. horrible. The bleeding wouldn't stop. and I still have it despite having given birth. put some sudocrem. Or you could ask a pharmacist if Anusol is okay to use..
you need to drink pure orange juice or something to help soften your poo then it will be less traumatic on your bum. you can get stool softners from your chemist also xx
I'm diabetic so can't do the orange juice. but can try the softner.
thanks ladies will give some of these a try. the witch hazel I can imagine stings like hell! does it? ha ha.
never had it this bad before. but will make sure I drink plenty of water too xx
