Buggering haemoroids!

Had this one random pile for about a year now, doesn't normally bother me much (anyone know if its still possible for them to vanish after this long?).

But today I've been driven demented. Finally get a minute to check - and it's only another fecken one! Didn't think they could show so far forwards!

Got the canasten on. Hope I caught it in time this time or my arse is gonna start looking like it has sprouted it's own vagina and is making a bid for independence!

Anyone else driven demented by the damn things!?

I got the first one whilst on a diet, eating too much fibre n it sent me to the loo a lot. Think this one is the result of Christmas indulgence. I just can't help but think, I'm only 31, I shouldn't have to deal with this already :/ my body clearly hates me lol.

The suppositories are good. I get them occasionally but use the suppositories for around 5 days and they go away.

'Buggering' haemorrhoids - nice adjective. Grin

Pinkbonbon · 28/12/2019 06:34

silvafox I thought so Wink

And now I'm just wondering if ass sex causes piles. I always thought I might give it a bash one day but ...maybe not Grin

Eurax cream is fab for Heamorrhoids

If you don't mind me asking, how can you tell it's piles? I'm not sure if I've got one or it's just a skin tag or something! What a lovely tmi start to your morning from me - sorry!!

Pinkbonbon · 28/12/2019 07:28

Ooh gory detail times.

Well the one I've had for a year doesn't hurt or itch or anything ever (at least, anymore). But occasionally it bleeds after going number 2. Looks like a skintag. Would have thought it was a 'prolapsed pile' as they call it but it is pink not blueish. At least when it isn't doing one of its bleedy days.

The new ones are just itchy af. Like I thought it was a rash or something until i felt about and can feel a raised area.

So I guess they can present differently.

So look for itching, bleeding and raised lumps or skintag like things.

So basically when they fill with blood due to whatever (straining or going too often to the toilet ect...) they itch like crazy or bleed. They feel more solid then. But when they calm down they feel more deflated.

Hmm, still none the wiser haha. Mine has never itched, and it's pink not blue... just not sure, it seems a bit too far away from where I'd expect it - it's more perineum I think?

Isn't this a fun early morning chat? Smile I'm with you on fibre though, everything says to eat more to be healthier but I seem to tick over better on less!

Pinkbonbon · 28/12/2019 07:39

Yes, great before breakfast chat Smile apparently if you increase fibre you should also increase water intake in order to make it easier to go. Doubt that would have helped me though as I would still have been going twice per day and that's what brought it on I think.

My new ones are a bit nearer the middle too so I was surprised. And as they are all pink....Maybe it's a family of baby rabbits looking for a new den Confused

But yeah I know its piles xD

If they don't hurt or itch you though then I wouldn't worry about it. Touch wood that'll be all you ever hear from them.

Ah bugger... oh well, I'll continue to ignore them! I did briefly try the cream stuff and it made sod all difference! I think I'll just go back to eating beige crappy food - you know, for my health... I never had this when I lived off takeaways!

Pinkbonbon · 28/12/2019 07:54

Haha I was thinking of dieting again but I font think my bum could take it Grin so chips and pizza it is! Gotta think about our health after all Wink

Yeah the cream never helped me the first time either or even the suppositories. Guess I'll just have to live in hope this time around.

It might be a haematoma.
I’ve been to the docs about the same thing after a bout of norovirus when I went to the loo a lot more.

Doc said it would go on it’s own.
I got it just as we got to Tenerife so the stuff I bought is all in Spanish.

I took a photo when it was at its worst and then one a week ago and it’s definitely going down.
Doc said another two weeks and it should be gone.
It’s real name was sub something haematoma..I missed the something.
It bled once at its worst when it was really irritated..just a tiny bit, then nothing since.

TheCountessatHotelCortez · 28/12/2019 09:19

I’ve had internal ones since having my children 4 years ago, they’re not too bad though occasionally get irritated during a bowel movement which makes them bleed a little and sometimes they’re itchy but a lot of the time they’re fine. Not sure whether you can have flare ups?

CigarsofthePharoahs · 28/12/2019 09:24

I have one that pops up every now and again. Suddenly feels like I'm trying to shit coarse sandpaper.

MoonlightMistletoe · 28/12/2019 09:43

Ouch OP just ouch!

I have had them my worse case was before and after I gave birth to my one year old. It was excruciating, eye watering in fact I cried it was that bad BlushI had a steroid cream and suppositories also ice cubes to numb the pain, I can say I'm no longer in pain now but they are still there on the inside luckily not on the outside any more being strangled.

Defo get some ice cubes if those fuckers are giving you grief.

Pinkbonbon · 28/12/2019 09:51

It's the fucking itching that gets me. Watching 'Jack Frost' last night thinking, 'those twig arms he has look great for scratching with' lol.

The one ive had for over a year does hurt like hell on the odd rare occasion but mostly it's not a problem.

But these new ones....agh...agfpiefouerhir4t4ojtip45tiyo?#/#!!
They have decided to bleed today too. Hoping they will just fuck off soon. Might have to go see a doc to have them removed if they go like the other one.

Know my grandad apparently had to have the op to have his removed so...

Don't know if the older one is a haemotoma right enough. Could be.

Not sure how effective or if it's advised medically but...a poster on here very recently recommended talc as a miracle cure for piles!! Disclaimer- I haven't tried it Grin

Pinkbonbon · 28/12/2019 10:16

Might be worth a shot. Right now I'd stick a friggin straw up there and snort a line of cocaine if it would stop the itch haha.
