Piles!!!!

I am 36weeks and have just developed piles as a result of a stomach upset. I have been lucky enough to avoid them until now. It is v painful and there has been a bit of bleeding. I have been using Germaliods and some cream i had pescribed by the doctor a while ago when i had them. Anyone got any tips on how to treat them. I guess the chances of them clearing up until after the birth are pretty slim. I am having an elective c section thankfully as goodness knows what they would be like after a natural birth!!!
I did mention it to the midwife who just said that they are v common, do I really need to see a doctor?
