      im the same trying to take a shower or bath every time i go the loo. i take stool softeners every night& am on 4 hourly paracetamol & 8 hourly brufen. i was also prescribed buscopan to take after a bm to stop the spasming. unsure if it helps? i saw my surgeon on day 10 & he said i was healing well - no sign of infection & to just hang in there. i do have some tramadol i was taking but needed a break from it !

      i hope you feel better soon

      day 20 here and its much the same. im taking paracetamol & ibprofen all the time, trying to stay away from opiates. im getting better but so incredibly slowly its awful. i thought by now i would be feeling so much better. my mood is so low as i cant do anything like going 4 a walk due to the pain - feeling so hopeless its awful. the burning after bm is getting better so at least thats a relief. SO regret having this done - the pain of having them was nothing compared to this

      so here is what i take daily , morning stool softner , IBU 200 mg and tylenals if pain gets really bad i take half of a hydrocodone pill i also drink 8 oz of citrucel fiber then at evening i take stool softner again and to keep my poop soft so it dont hurt going # 2 milk of magnesia 2 table spoons full at night right before bed time it helps the next morning for sure

      does it stop the pain or burn NO then i take bath to wash of very warm right after the use of toilet thats for sure , it feels good while u in it but boy u get out the pain and burn is back . like u i miss my walking daily and doing all the house stuff but cant yet at this point . oh question if u dont mind , were are u from ? Do u eat light not much meat or salt , i still doing soups , toast and so on how about u

      hi

      thank u for getting back with me

      it helps a lot

      im on day 18 still hurting in the mornings after each BM i have like 2 to 3 of them and each time sit in bath after worth

      today is my first day of follow up at the dr

      cant wait to hear what he had to say

      i still have pain and burning after each BM and in the last 4 days lots of itching

      oh and i am from germany but live in USA now

      is the burning and pain gone with u ?

      after u got of laxatives u did not hurt or burn or rib anything

      i am scared of that because it still hurts so bad going to the bathroom

      when does the pain in the cheeks go away and the backaches

      i still take citrucel in the morning 1 glass 8oz fiber eat healthy and only take milk of magnesia at night low mg

      still take tylenals for pain and ibuprofin

      cant wait to hear back from u again

      thank u so much for doing that and ur time

      i have the sore muscles in my lower back & bum cheeks as well still. i hope that begins to go soon! im like you amd still painful after a bm but not as sore - i used to have to lie down 4 an hour after & now its just sore rather than excrusiating. im drinking prune juice so trying to use a natural laxative which is helping. the burning is getting better but the the itching is awful - using hydrocortisone cream a few times a day which helps

      hi

      so update after dr follow up

      he said its looking good and doing just as it needs to do

      the swollen outside once will go down in do time

      well he also likes me to continue to do the night time milk of magnesia 15 mg until the pain is not as bad any more like it still is right now after every BM

      he said normal for the cheeks and backbone to hurt after it is a pretty rough painful surgery and in a place were it takes time to heal do to it being were its always warm and wet

      so i cant wait to get to the spot place were u are

      did some light dusting then break and then vacuum and break dishes and break and then pain and heat pillow and tylenal

      well that's it for now

      hope to hear back from u soon , bye
