Gave birth 6 weeks ago and 2 weeks ago started experiencing the most horrendous pain when psasing wind or bowel movement. Took me a week to realise it was probably piles, so started treating as such, still huge pains so started treating for internal piles and still huge pains so I had a look and they are huge (but am sure they weren't there a week ago) and I am in increasing pain before, during and after going to the loo (although farting doesn't hurt anymore!) - I kid you not, it's worse than second stage pushing and nearly makes me cry. Mentioned it at my 6 week check up and the doctor said she thought there may be an anal fissure as well, offered me suppositories but that's it. How long do I continue to suffer before going back? This is getting really bad and am dreading going to the loo more than I was 2 days after birth/stitches etc.... Thanks
