Hello, new here! I am 29 and suffer from hemmoroids since high school but slightly bothered me. One week per year. No big deal. The last year i had many times fissures crisis but lasted three weeks and gone by their own but after a month they were back. No i am since early october with that thing. Pain is un bearable sometimes. Went to doctor and he said that i need surgery but not botox. He prescribed me lidocaine 2.5 and some very powerful painkillers and a pill that helps blood circulation. Also stool softeners and eat many fruit. Nothing worked for a week. So after much reading on here and my experience i follow the next
1. Painkiller after bm. It is the only way to reduce pain. No this didnt take the pain away but from hard pain i have after an hour a bearable burning. That helps muscles to relax a bit.
3. Hot baths after bm and also when I am home I sit on a hot pillow.
3. I apply lidocaine inside my anus half an hour before bm. There are many non sharp things to do that. That helps inner muscles to relax and not spasm.
4.after bm i apply a mix of olive oil with comfrey extract in and out of my anus. This helps skin to restore.
5. Eat fibers but not to many. First week my stool had a first very hard stool followed by soft. But the first was enough to ruin my day. So take some laxative that do not bulk them. Only soften.
6. Plently of water. Helps to detox from painkiller and not bloat from fiber.
After all of them a week now i had a bm with a 30%less pain. It takes time to the gut to get used to the new diet.
Some extra tips
Kiwi juice prunes and beetroot helped me. Also drink some coffee and make a cigarete bf bm helped me to relax and not strain. But only one. Do not start smoking. And last but not least. Relax. Pray, do yoga, do something that help your stress.
I know it is hard but i want as all of you to take back my life.
Since my next post good luck everyone
