I am almost 35 weeks... and for the past 2 weeks have been dealing with disgusting, horrible, painful hemorrhoids.

For the past two days ive had a really itchy rectum- im thinkin possible hemmeroids. Should i go out and get some of that "tucks" stuff or whatever? Or is there something else i need to do to take care of the problem.... and should I be notifying my DR of this issue?

I'm two weeks post partum... are the hemorrhoids going to go away on their own or do I need to do something? I was taking the stool softeners the hospital sent me home with until just a few days ago, and OW. I already drink tons of water and eat lots of fruits and veggies and whole grains, I'm not straining at all and it's still SO painful.

I have developed a tiny hemorrhoid (luckily I'm almost done with the pregnancy!). It is not too painful yet, just uncomfortable and a little itchy. Has anyone tried using witch hazel, and if so, does it work?

When I go to the toilet to do a poo I often find a small buldge or flap of internal skin that has been pushed out. I don't strain or anything, no hard stools. Is this a hernia? it dosn't hurt and I just push it back in ( Read more... )

Hemorrhoids.

:(

Any suggestions?

Is it safe to drink LifeWater while pregnant?
I know that some herbs are NOT safe to ingest/use while pregnant. I just want to make SURE.

Also, has anybody ever had a bad reaction from witch hazel or hemroid cream??
