Terrible Hemorrhoids
Is hemorrhoid surgery worth it? Cost? HELP PLEASE?
I’m 22 and I haven’t seen a doctor yet, but I have the most painful case of hemorrhoids I swear. It started out just itching, but now it’s honestly like my anus is plugged and every time I take a crap it tears through the hemorrhoids.
I avoid goign to the bathroom without suppasotories. Last night I used them and they turned the fecal matter into mush yet it was still the worst and most painful experience yet. I still can’t sleep… COnstant throbbing. I use preparation H, but I can’t even get the applicator into the anus anymore. I don’t see the hemorrhoids from the outside, so I’m assuming these are internal.
I could go on and on but this is the most painful thing I’ve ever gone through. I don’t have health insurance right now. I’ve heard the surgery is painful, but I’m already in terrible pain. Is it costly? And does it work? I can’t keep shoving suppositories up my tooshie every time I need to go to the bathroom.
First of all, before you get all worked up for surgery- it may not be necessary. I know they are incredibly painful, and a doctor will be the person best able to help you- but the first option is not usually surgery. In your case, you want to start with attention to the other end of you- which is where the trouble starts. You have to alter your diet to include more fruits, veggies, and whole grain foods, and more liquids. You need fiber to prevent constipation, which keeps you from having to strain and tear the tender tissues of your tushie. As soon as you can, for immediate pain relief, try soaking your tushie in a bath of warm water and witch hazel. While you are at the store getting the witch hazel, get yourself some Tuck pads and baby wipes with aloe and no scent. Take those home, put the Tucks in the fridge to get nice and cold. It may help if you put the cream tube in there as well. That will help put out your fire. Skip on the dry paper for personal cleaning, and use the baby wipes. So your tush will smell nice, and you won’t drag sandpaper over tender spots. Whenever you go to the bathroom, put one of those nice cold Tucks on the spot in question, and use some of that cold cream internally if you can do it. Also get yourself some drinkable fiber mix- and drink a glass of that each day. You are aiming to keep things nice and soft here so you don’t strain at all to go. You will need to take your time in the little reading room as well, no rush jobs for you. Soaking in the water and witch hazel will also feel good for a while. You will have to keep up the diet changes, and if you do the hemorrhoids can heal themselves in a bit- how long exactly depends on how bad they really are. That piece of info has to come from the doctor, and you won’t like the exam it takes to get the information. Internal hemorrhoids are faster healing than those that distend and hang out where you can see them as well. And believe it or not, if you don’t do what’s needed to heal them- they can get worse. Surgery only deals with what you have now, and if you don’t change your diet they will return with vengence. The surgery is also not pleasant either- trust me, I get to see the other end of it quite literally. The expense depends on what it takes to repair them, and diet changes are a lot cheaper and easier on the wallet. Not to mention other parts of you. Remember- easy on the red meat and alcohol, lots of other fluids, lots of fruits, veg, salads, whole grain foods, and your fiber drink. Keep the treatment stuff cold, and soak your tush- and you should be able to bear with things until they heal.
