Internal muscle massage?

Postby hopefulbutt » 23 Jun 2013, 19:32

Ok. So far my second round of botox has only made me more sore with easier gas.  I'm sure the exam and shots (2 weeks ago) is why it's feeling worse.  I have felt the muscle I inside and dang it is sore!  All day. Worse after bm.  How does anyone help this?  I also am still on diltiazem.  Really frustrated with myself.  I should have let it be or just had the surgery.   Is massaging the muscle a good or bad idea?  Will it relieve the pain or only make of worse?   I don't know what else to do but lie around all day and cry.   So worn out.

hopefulbutt, oh dear, you seem so frustrated, let the botox work and leave the area alone until it feels better.
How long the second round is been? if is just recently you need to give time.
Then if you still having problems and pain, go for the surgery, is not  reason why having to suffer any longer.
Remember that most doctors will not do surgery until Botox wears off.
I am so sorry you are having soo much problems.

Hi Hopeful Butt. 
I would be careful, maybe just give it a bit more time... I hope that you can heal soon. I think Marg is right, they won't do anything until the Botox has worn off. I have retorn twice on the Damn chronic fissure, waiting a scan and then need to see CRS again. Sigh.

I agree with the others.... Leave well alone... Pamper your bott... Rest up.... Just give it a bit more time. As its your second time with Botox you may just need that bit of extra time. I am ten days in and still feel very raw and swollen down there... So bare with it... Try not to think the worst.

botox did nothing for me except give me incontinence and anxiety.

I've had Botox (& fissurectomy) and my ass is always sore/numb after a BM. The sitz helps but when I get out the booted up the bum feeling starts. I've starting applying a cold pack to the area for 5'mins which relieves it. Whether that's a good thing I don't know, try it, it might relieve your agony enough to have a semi-normal day. Stay off your feet too. Gravity is a bi**h I find.

Thanks everyone. It will be 2 weeks tomorrow from botox.  I know it's somewhat kicked in because I can pass gas so easily.  I will try and let it just be. I just am so desperate for some pain relief I just get crazy sometimes.  I know my Crs won't do surgery till the botox is gone anyway.  How does everyone stand it?  I finally took a Vicodin last night to get some relief.  Sainted killer did you finally have lis? Really was hoping botox would do it.  
Thank you all so much for your support
