Help!

[toomuchpain]

Very embarrassing but got very bad piles and in agony. Any advice on how to cope (can't get doctor's appointmetn til tomrrow afternoon).

Feeling very sorry for myself !

Sit on a rubber ring/loads of cushions in a circle shape to keep the pressure off. I have been told that rubbing the area with something cold should help. Poor you!

oooooohhh i have sever sympathy i had these bad with my last dd2. warm flannel and doc asap i found good

mine got to the point that they bled alot

what cream do you have if any?

Thanks fo r the replies.

No cream yet - do they actually work?

Wrap an ice cube in kitchen roll/toilet paper and push as close to your anus as you can bear. Allow to melt.

Get some anusol, keep it in the fridge and apply a bit after each time you poo or every 4 hours.

Thanks will do - thanks for the advice. Poor ice cube!

bump. desperately need more advice -please

The anusol cream and supositry work really well. Can you send someone to 24hr tesco or chemist?

Definitely a rubber ring to sit on (kids swimming band will do). Or you could sit on a packet of frozen peas (you might want to make it the value ones and not put them back in the freezer afterwards). Anusol or Prep H or whatever do work. And I'm sorry to hear you are suffering, have been there after DS was born, it's not funny at all when it's you it's happening to.

who remembers the bottom surgery thread
