    Hi Edmund - I know exactly how you feel I am currently recovering after my second lot of Botox injections. The first 3 months has been fine however the pain is now back again along with the bleeding so I am certain I will be telling my consultant in a few weeks to go ahead with the surgery as the Botox seems to not of helped. I am currently taking movicol sachets daily aswel as Lactulose as these really help to make my stools soft. I would definitely recommend going on these if you aren't already. I know this sounds horrible too but personally I highly recommend using wet wipes down that area too as it's helped me out. Everyone is different but it's good to share experiences with other people who are going through the same and try other things out if it could help you. Lisa

    I would try using this cream called Calmoseptine. It's a mix of zinc oxide and menthol. the zinc oxide is good for having leakage down there and the menthol offers a cooling effect. WOuld highly recommend this!

      Oh no. Sorry to hear that. Maybe they sell a similar product. The main ingredients are zinc oxide and menthol so maybe they have a knock off with those same ingredients.

      Best of luck!

    I am from the US. totally understand your pain. I really wanted to commit suicide, jump off a bridge etc... I recently went on a trip to a beach and I was in inmense pain. A scale from 1-10 it was a 20. Once I got in the water 5 mins later pain going down. Pain was there for like 2 days and by the 4th it was gone. I am guessing the salt water healed it. I was in pain for 3 months until that day. I am still careful on whati eat though, that made diffrence too. I ate much red meat now I eat chicken and kean meats. It was hard being half Mexican and Lithuian. We love red meats. That helped. I still keep taking stool sofners they do help. I am still traumatized. I thiibk it was the salt water that made a diffrence.
