to be simple i usually have one BM per day and it pretty much purges my digestive system
I havent had to go to the bathroom a large amount of times ever really in my life, if i did have to go more than 4 times its usually because i took too many laxitives. I use a bit more than a regular dose of miralax everyday to keep my stool a bit softer than it should be. If my stool is what a regular stool should be like it seems to cause more tearing or atleast more discomfort and pain. My whole life ive had chronic constipation maybe because of a lack of hydration or something but if i dont take miralax every day my stool will get incredibly hard incredibly quick, if you have ever seen a stool chart it would go back to the most constipated level of stool if i dont take miralax. before i took miralax i thought it was normal to only go to the bathroom maybe once a week or perhaps even longer i rarely ever had BMs. my hemorrhoids only bother me after i go to the bathroom, so when i do go i immediately take a hot bath and rub the external ones to normal which usually takes only a minute. then the internal ones may stay a bit longer because i cant rub them out comfortably or really at all so if i soak about 20 minutes im back to normal. after soaking in the tub the discomfort from the hemorrhoids are pretty much all gone after i get out the tub i apply whatever medication im trying to relax the area and hope that its healing the fissures. i apply cremes and things ive made atleast 3 times a day if not more sometimes like 7 times a day mostly experimentally. sorry to hear youre going back and forth to the bathroom that many times you may want to consider a stool hardener chronic diarrhea or lose movements can dry out your butt from the constant wet dry and wiping. if it drys out your skin that could have been what caused you skin to get weak enough to tear and give you a fissure. try using something hydrating on the area and get your stools harder perhaps more fiber or some medication. im not familiar with stool hardeners they would probably kill me. feel free to add anything to this post
