The spasms have been the worst. I'd feel fine after a BM for a good couple hours, then I'd get hit w/ excruciating pain that would lay me up on the couch for 4-6 hours. I've also experienced blood on the TP most times, usually just a trace but sometimes a shocking bright red splotch. I also have the telltale tag in front of it, which hasn't been a hindrance...I think it's small compared to what I've seen and read about. I am curious what it all looks like down there!
Anyway, about 2 weeks ago, I haven't had the bad spasms. Sometimes some discomfort afterwards, but nothing like before. I've also been itchier than usual, too. The removable showerhead has been a godsend w/ both pain and scratching that itch. My question is, does that mean I'm healing? Itching on any injury is usually a good sign of that, but the spasms of the inner sphincter are still quite the mystery to me. I love not having the spasms, but I'm quite the pessimist and don't want to celebrate what might be a small victory in this war on my butt... not until someone can fill me in.
Oh the puns..
