Default Just an FYI this is a TMI post so beware

Ok so I am not sure if any of you can help me but I am in so much pain I am hoping someone has been in my shoes before. I have hemiroids and normaly they dont bother me but Monday I had a BM and it was really hard and my rectum suffered a tear, I am on iron for animei(sp) I take colace everyday since starting the iron but it didnt work, so now my butt hurts really really bad and everytime I have to have a bm I almost pass out from the pain, then for the rest of the day I am in agony I dont know what to do I have used Prep H wipes, supositories and spray but I am in so much pain and nothing is helping. Anyone have any advice or remidy for me

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

((HUG))) i know this totally blows!

LAST year i had a nasty nasty lingering stomach virus...consent diarear
and suffered hemoroids real bad ...REAL bad...!!!!
I had to eventually see a gastro doctor cause we didnt know
why i had the runs this long...( i was one of the first to have this type of virus before docs realized thats what was going around)...and at this point i was back to normal but kept the appointment anyway cause of
the ROID situation.....from the bug and he said nothing really CURES but
just keep the area clean, sit in warm baths and eventually it should ease.

SORRY your going thru this i do hear that IRON supplements tend to cause constipation! (((HUG))))
hope others have suggestions but the GASTRO doctor told me not to waste my money on products that wont help.
HOPE you feel better soon.

Warm baths are good.. also they sell like a sitz bath kit at most pharmacys you might want to look into .. they are relatively cheap which might not matter if your in pain.

Have you ever tried milk of magnesia to soften up?
And as Lisa and bren says, warm bath will help ease the pain, too. Warm after you bm, and you probably will feel better.

Tucks pads!!! You can use them to wipe, and fold them in half, tuck them in between you cheeks and lay down on your stomach for 20 to 30 minutes. There is something about that witch hazel that takes the swelling down. Also, Anusol hemoroid cream seems to work better than Preparation H.

Red face try a.....

Hemorrhoid suppository....

These are great because they are rectal and kinda melt. I had a really bad hemorrhoid this summer about 3mos. in....around the time I had my back issues...I was taking meds that were causing my stools to be difficult.

Also, try a stool softener suppository....this will help with your BM's now while your hemorrhoid is healing.

Sorry Becka....that's awful....

Thank you all for your replies I know its not a pretty thing to talk about but I was sure someone had been where I am. Finaly I feel a little better, I am taking stool softeners and using the wipes and the suppositories and the spray, but I have to say the best thing ever for it has been the warm/hot baths but cant very well take a bath at wal-mart when they start hurting so bad, thats when all the other stuff came in handy. again thank you all for helping me

I also have this problem. It hurt so bad and was causing bloody stool. My dr prescribed stool softeners. I take 100 mg twice a day. I've also increased my fiber. I think I have the contispation under control, now I'm healing from the roids that were caused by the constipation and hard stool. I use prep H 2 or 3 times a day and that seems to help. When the roids are healed, I'll back off the stool softeners and get the balance I need through food, water and supplements.

I wish I would have known about the sitz bath earlier

Be sure you get plenty of water in so you are not dehydrated, and things stay soft.
