Hi try a sitz bath i too have ibs c so i bought a sitz bath which sits on the toilet and fillit with warm water and sit for about 10/15 mins after each bowel movement you could also add some epsom salts or you could do this in the bath with a few inches of water but its so much easier with a sitz bath which i bought off ebay.

Anusol suppositories for shrinking piles are also good not the glycerol ones.

Hope this helps take care.

Your welcome let Jem know how you get on x.

As one who has had piles get something done about it. See your Dr. There is nothing like having them fixed.

Yes but just a little . But when I spoke to the doctor as appointments are cancelled he said unlikely to be piles as nothing showed up in my scans or x Ray . He said to try glycerine suppository incase it was hard stools . Did that still got pain but no blood . Then doctor suggest taking more laxido . So trying that but to be honest I just don’t no . As can’t see a doctor as piles not emergency so.just trying . But today it’s been bad and to be honest I just want to give up . Taking buscopan for pain then rad it can cause constipation .sorry for the rant but with the lockdown it’s really hard as seeing the doctor would easy the stress and worry . Again sorry for off loading 😳
