Owww torn from constipation, creams to make sitting easier?

[Phunkychicken]

TMI!!

I have EDS so sadly am well used to being constipated but yesterday I tore really badly and am really sore.

obviously am taking movicol etc to go more often but walking hurts, sitting hurts and the cuts are also rubbing /chafing.

Is there anything I can get to try and ease the pain ?

Thanks

I'd take a painkiller orally rather than a cream - I'm not sure much works topically.

Thanks, sadly it’s painkillers that got me into this mess

Aloe Vera gel , or anusol
