IBS with diagnosed internal piles/hemorrhoids

[rmlski]

Hello, I have altered between constipation and loose stools for years. Months ago after a hard stool there was blood, it hurt so much like I was cut. Each time there forward with a hard stool it was like a knife and some spotting on toilet paper. I finally went to GI, she said she sees grade 1 internal hemmeroids, gave me a script for internal cream. It helped right away, so I stopped. Now again, didn’t have a BM for days, finally went and it hurt, again some spotting. The spotting only happens when it’s a hard stool, feels like something sharp scraping the sides. After the movement it stings for a couple hours after. Starting The cream again, Anyone else have similar experience?

I feel your pain, suffering with extremely bad piles today. Nothing works except a hot bath and then the pain returns. I to suffer bouts of extreme constipation. The feeling when passing a poo is absolutely excruciating. Worse than child birth and i have 4 children. I take laxido to soften the poo but it doesn't always work. It can be extremely difficult to get on with the day in sooo much pain.

Hey thank you for replying! Yes it’s awful, very sharp feeling. This morning hurt like heck but surprisingly no blood.. at least that I could see. Not sure what to do? I can’t do the medicine forever and my bottom is so sore. I agree it’s worse then child birth. Never dealt with this before. I’m sorry you deal with same, have you tried a script or is that what laxido is? She wants to do a colonoscopy just for routine and can do something to rid the piles I guess. Need to figure out food intake and diet, maybe that will help. Ugh!

Hello again, just wondering if anyone else deals with Grade 1 internal piles? I use the cream prescribed but if I stop or miss one day, I feel it again when I go. How do you get rid of them permenantly?!? This is ridiculous, I’m getting so frustrated, can’t walk around with a tube of butt cream forever.
