Hi. I’m looking for advice. I’m 42 year old mom of 3. I got awful hemmroids with pregnancy and birth. I went to the dr when one thrombosed. She said I needed surgery for that and the huge skin tag from the last time I had one lanced. 

The surgery went well. I was told 2 weeks off work. I felt great the first few days. I was on Advil and Tylenol. I seem to have a few good days then a bad day. Well yesterday and today are horrible pain and swelling. I thought it was suppose to get better each day not worse. My stools are soft but like razors.  Is it normal to feel worse on day 9?  Also what creams do you apply?  And is anyone on antibiotics?  Thanks and help!!!

    I'm 31 days out from hemnerhoid surgery..it was very painful.. I'm still having pain! It's at least a six week recovery. I lived in my site bath and Epsom salts. It's getting better..unfortunately I got a new thrombosis hemmorhoid! I'd never do this again. I hope you have taken enough time to heal... God bless and I'll pray for your pain... I was on percocet

      Thank you. I was doing so good and all the sudden it’s so bad. I’m really regretting this whole thing. Did you take any antibiotic?  I’m hoping no infection down there.
