Good Morning Ladies,
Well i had the wonderful experience to waking up last night to painful hemroids. I took some tylenol just to take to edge off. But I have to sit on my *** all day and it will be a long day if I cant at least figure out what to do. Dr's off is closed today and I put in 2 calls to the on call dr. Has anyone had this experience before and what did you do to help. Please anything at this point will help.
Thanks
Re: Pregnancy Hemroids
I had them with ds#1 and have them again this time around. The best advice is try not to strain when going to the bathroom - so stay hydrated, eat lots of fiber-rich foods. I also found witch hazel pads to be a relief. And get up and move as much as you can during the day - I take walks to the farther vending machine, print to different printers, etc.
If they are really bad, your doc may have something stronger to recommend. I know it sucks, I'm sorry! If it's any comfort to you, I had no issues with them after ds was born - just during pregnancy.
GL!
