Anyone used witch hazel for persistent pile that bleeds

Peanutbutterplease profile image

I've an on-going pile problem it went after a stubborn month or so now it's back and bleeds only after a stool my stools are hard dry texture and I am baffled as I eat grains fruit veggies mainly a vegan lifestyle. I am not one of these new processed type vegans who still want all the junk and cards but no animals no no I am more natural home cooking beans pulses that kind of thing but my stools have started to struggle again . Not passing whole either I do think possibly not drinking enough . I am looking for different remedies. Anyone?

With your natural diet, your fiber intake should be sufficient, so hydration could indeed be an issue here. Without enough water, fiber can actually contribute to dry stool, making it harder to pass. If you don't like the taste of water, maybe you can drink tea or diluted juice or you may be able to find some fruit flavouring to add to water to make it taste better. Prunes or figs may help too

Good luck

Have you tried the creams for haemorrhoids. I have porridge with fruit in the morning and a glass of prune juice. Plenty of veg with my evening meal and 2 litres of water each day. Since taking cocodamol and gabapentin for my spondylolisthesis, I do need laxatives. I have haemorrhoids and they bleed about once or twice a year. So not a real problem. If the extra fluid does not work perhaps talking to your GP just to check everything OK. Hope you find a treatment soon.

You could try some magnesium daily. I had a hemorrhoid that suddenly started bothering me and I had it surgically removed in may. It's a super painful recovery but def worth it! It takes a month to feel somewhat normal, needing with BMs for months is normal. Some pain and sorenesss for about 3-4 months. Highly recommend it, I feel so much better. I didn't know how much it was blocking and pressing on everything down there. Sits baths and preparation H helped sooth the area. With hazel helped after birth of my kids so I think it could help. Other things was this ointment I got on Amazon that instantly relieved the pain. Idk if it's available where you are
