like lots of people I’ve had occasional external haemorrhoids on and off over the years.
largely manageable but one was thrombosed about 10 years and never known pain like it.
Since then I’ve got a couple of prescription creams to treat them if they pop up, so to speak. I eat lots of veg/ exercise a lot/ stay hydrated blah blah so I don’t think there’s much else I can do.
BUT one thing I have noticed is that going on a night out where I’m dancing really causes a flare up. Specifically if I’m standing around a lot. I’m not doing any weird dancing where I strain and I occasional drink alcohol but never much. I can literally feel them coming on by the end of the night and wake up in pain the next morning.
Has anyone else experienced this?
if I do a dance class at the gym or spend all day on my feet shopping it doesn’t happen.
It’s putting me off going on nights out or to parties !
