Hello,

Has anyone gotten bad hemroids. I'm 1 month out and having a really hard time going to the restroom. If I go, it's every 3 to 4 days. Sometimes it's only 1 a week. Let me know if anyone else has had this problem. I've also just started birth control and I've been feeling sick since I started.

Hello,

Thanks for asking this question. I am 1 week post op today, and since leaving the hospital I have been experiencing the same thing.

It's common. I'm 4 months post op and I take duralax every night and fiber powder added to my water throughout the day . Even doing this I still only go once or twice a week .. It's frustrating

I had constipation off and on for almost six months. I took milk of magnesia and that always helped. I drink one cup of coffee every morning and that makes me go. I really freaked out about pooping every three or four days, because before I went every day. But you just aren't going to go every day because you're not eating as much. But mom helped me every time. I did get a few roids, but they're better now.

But did anyone get Hemroids?

I did the size of Texas. Never had one before this. I am three months out and just now starting to go without a suppository. My doctor told me to take what I needed to go.

I just went to the Dr today because of unbearably painful hemorrhoids. I was prescribed narcotics and topical foam. She recommended upping my intake of stool softeners and miralax

YES, I had hemroids. Witch hazel put directly on it helps, lots of water and 4 Colace helped "move" things along

Talked to my surgeon about this issue, he told me to take magnesium, as it will aid in the constipation issues.

I had surgery Jan 5th and I still have a very hard time going even went to the ED thinking I was going to have a blockage. The doctors say its due to not getting in enough water. I am lucky if I do twice a week sometimes. I even got a hemroid from trying to force myself.

My doctor has me taking a stool softener 3x a day .

I had to go to a gastro dr for medicine, i got in very bad shape. Bleeding impacted

I came home from the hospital with a RX for Ducolax/Colace and have taken it ever since. What's one more gel tab? It's only a natural softener, so I'd rather take one/day than suffer unnecessarily .

That was 5 years ago.

I take colace every night (3 months out) after a very bad experience going #2 in a public place. I'm afraid to be constipated again.
