Piles

[jaglad]

Since having my Circ' peeing has become something of an art form with two sometime 3 streams. To alleviate the spraying of the floor I took to sitting down to pee, this I 'learn' can lead to piles. Unsure if this is true or an old wives, but I suffer non-the-less. I know I could see my GP but as I am having Consults for three separate issues currently I don't want to add to the list.

So other than the usual creams is there any permanent way to get rid ?

There are so many old wives tales about piles. Unless you are straining to wee then I suspect that you will be no more at risk of piles than standing to pee. If you are having to push to pee then you probably need a prostate check.

Unfortunately I already have the piles, occasionally painful. 😞

I do not think sitting down to pee has caused them.

Have you consulted a doctor about your peeing issue to see if you have a problem with your urethra that can be rectified.
