8 days post op -Hemorrhoidectomy

How did I survive the first week of a burning bum? It wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. Don’t get me wrong it’s very painful but I’ve been dealing with that pain for years. I did this surgery hoping to have an end to hemorrhoid pain. A few more weeks to go....

day 25 here, going to the professor today to check up on me. for me every week had a day of horrible horrible pain, and then the rest of the days, every other day was good/bad. at the 3rd week i started having a bit of tough poop, or rather non-liquid poop, which was horrible to pass, since it felt like the sphincter was so tight i couldn't pass it without straining... i just long for the day i can start working out again, since its been more than 4 years since i last went to the gym... also, the fact that a literal war erupted 2 days after my operation where i live didn''t help much with the mental state during the whole healing process. anyways, much appreciation, from Israel!

[@kurtwadsworth2366]

Thanks for sharing. I’m on my 8th day of recovery. It is the most painful surgery I have ever had. Once I was hit by a car. This surgery hurt way worse than that. Day 4 I went to the ER because I had not pooped. When I did I screamed and cried for 30mins. This has not changed even on day 8. The only thing that helps is the pain meds and taking a hot bath. I bled the most today on 8th day. I don’t wish this pain on anyone. Hope you got better.

Fiber fiber and more fiber…. Lentil soup helps a lot, more fruits and lots of water. Prunes and prune juice nuts and lots of sitz baths. 😞😞😞 9th day and I’m better it’s just a lot of itching and throbbing pain. But the worst days I think are over.

[@OverHaluyu]

This is a terrible and frustrating problem to have. At some times I'm worried it might be a sign of something else serious. But what's helped me is being low carb and avoiding packaged foods. I can feel the blood fill whenever I eat high carb or bad foods. Fiber causes my IBS flare ups so I eat low to moderate amounts. PROBIOTICS have changed my life. I take pro50 and I'm much more regular, no straining. First couple brands I tired made it worse and caused constipation but pro50 worked for me and I've bough more than 5bottles. I will try using it to fermenting food or drinks because it is expensive 30/month

Hello..its so nice you are posting your experience...I have hemorrhoids since the age of 15 and they flare up every now and then...this week I got the worse flare up...I got the burning sensation for days...I am still so scared to go to the hospital....how many hemorhoids did you have? I have two piles( previous hemorrhoids that are now skin tags ) one hemorrhoid thats internal and one last one that's semi internal/external due to giving birth...I normally have really bad constipation...right now I am taking laxatives and lots of water...stools are soft but my anus just wont open...its tight down there...

[@teawhy222]

I’m 3 days post surgery. My doc won’t prescribe narcotics because can cause constipation so I’m taking ibuprofen and Tylenol (actually takin excedrine migraine instead of straight Tylenol since I suffer with migraines) alternating every 3 hours and it helps to stay ahead of the pain. Day 2 my shot was wearing off and I missed my meds overnight while sleeping and man was I ready to give up the ghost! The pain was unbelievable. Better now. Mostly soreness and full belly with all the fiber and miralax and softeners. Also using Recticare which has lidocaine in it. Eating mostly soft foods trying to keep things soft. Warm bath soaks are the best and the site works as well. Still swollen and sensitive of course. I hope the pain stays no higher than it is now. Thank u for posting this video.

[@fastfoodaddict4858]

teawhy222 so glad you are recovering well.

[@teawhy222]

Yeah that was yesterday...now I pray I just pass out every time I have a BM the pain is so extreme. Trembling, fetal position, whimpering, crying like a baby...well u know. At this point I think I’ll just stop eating solids. Also my doc said pain from externals is much worse than internals because of the numerous nerve endings externally. She was correct.

[@fastfoodaddict4858]

[@motolordz6974]

Had my operation for a thrombosed hemorrhoid and Botox for my chronic fissure on the 18th March 2024. 4 days PO and I can tell you the pain is horrendous during bm. But he pain subsides after about an hour now but on the 2nd day it lasted 4hours with extreme burning. I take my pain meds (oxycodone) which seems to help some days. I spend day and night searching and studying patients which have gone through the same surgery as I have and I’m learning each day. 95% of the patients that have undergone this surgery state clearly that they are glad they’ve done the surgery. 80% say within the first 2 weeks they felt better with pain management after BM. Around 20% say it took them 4-6 weeks feeling better after bowl movements. I can personally say that the pain after surgery is much intense and goes much faster after BM than prior to surgery. I had pain for 9-12hrs after every BM and every single day for 8 months straight. That’s no way to live. I know this pain feels like it will never end but I’m optimistic and wish and hope for anyone that has done this surgery to be also. Keep strong and know it’s only weeks before the pain becomes a distant memory. ❤❤❤

I hate to see her suffer and I just want to convince her and myself that a hemorrhoidectomy is the best solution. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

[@sallyking8330]

I am 64 and even though it is painful, I would do it again in a heartbeat. Reason being is I was stuck at my house because I had to be near a restroom most of the time. Tonight I went out to soupplantation with my son and had a great meal. I've got my life back. Yes, there is pain but the pain is for healing. I was in pain before surgery. Surgery for stage 4 hemorrhoids is the only remedy. The pain will go away and your mom will love life again. That is my 2 cents and I hope it helps.

Thank you for this video. I just had mine ytd and its fustrating that i feel the burning sensation on my hole all the time. Feels like i want to poop but when i sit it doesn't want to come out due to the pain. My doc put a gauze inside till the outside, meaning its in between my hole and its quite painful at times. I took stool softener n laxatives, drink plenty of water and change my diet too but the feelings sucks. Doc gave me hospitalisation leave for 2weeks and i hope it heals. I only have celcoxib sandoz and paracetemol+codeine and it doenst help at all. What more can i do? Help

[@fastfoodaddict4858]

Shaf 18 I’m so sorry you are in such pain. How long do you need to keep the gauze in? Once it’s out you may feel better. Do you have ointment to put on? Are you taking sitz baths? Ibuprofen helped with the inflammation and burning for me. Don’t push when you poop. Take laxatives or stool softener to keep it soft so you don’t strain. I started a new job at 2 weeks but if you are still healing reach out to your dr and ask for more time. Some people get a muscle relaxer to help with pain as well. Join the Facebook group hemorrhoidectomy aftermath. You can talk to others that are going through it now. The pain is temporary and for me it was worth it in the end. Hope you heal quickly.

I am feeling the worst pain ever. At first I didn’t feel this type of pain. I had McDonald’s fries and picante salsa I also had ice cream and took a smooth bowel tea. I think because I also sat in the living room for three hours versus being in bed like I’ve been all those factored in to my pain right now. It feels like someone is slicing you from inside with a butcher knife. It’s a throbbing pain. I am currently using sits bath. I took Percocet and the sitz bath is helping

[@fastfoodaddict4858]

I’m so sorry you are in pain. It will get better it just takes time. The better you eat the better you will feel, at least it helped me (High carbs and sugars can cause inflammation so I make sure to have ibuprofen on hand to help if I eat the good stuff) The sitz baths with warm water helps, putting numbing cream on after each bathroom visit also helped with burning for a bit. The ibuprofen seemed to help more than the pain medication and it didn’t cause constipation. Hope you heal quickly and start feeling better.

[@fastfoodaddict4858]

Sunny Dayz it is such a big decision that you need to make for you. Don’t do it if you don’t feel comfortable. The Doctors warned me of how painful it was and several talked me out of it. I suffered so much with flair ups over the years. After my first pregnancy 22 years ago is when it started. I’m now 9 months out and am so glad that I went through it. I haven’t had to call into work because of a flair up since I had it. Prior it felt like I was calling in at least once a month sometimes for 2 or more days. I really don’t remember the pain unless I listen to a video and wonder if I was being dramatic in the pain.

[@fastfoodaddict4858]

john mark the softer you can make your poop the better. Stool softener every few hours you will need something stronger if you are taking pain meds because they cause constipation. Don’t strain just sit there relaxed till your body does what it needs to. Straining and pushing hurts and will cause more hemorrhoids. Recticare cream helps numb it before you go as well and makes it easier to wipe. Day 4 you are halfway through the worst part. Ibuprofen helped me with the pain and inflammation too. Hope you feel better soon.

This is the only way to get rid of internal larger hemorrhoids in your sphincter. Mine where about 2 oz worth of tissue and vein. I’m on day 8 and this is a terrible recovery but you have to push through. Your bowel movement will be the worst after that you feel relived. I was bleeding a lot every time when I had the internal hemorrhage . No blood now at all. But it’s soo uncomfortable to go pass stool. I am a good vegetable low fat eater but still it hurts I’m on day 8 on mine. I do feel gradually better every day. I walk small amounts in the mornings to strengthen the muscle down there. If you decide to go through with it post on here daily and I can give you advice as to how I have been getting through this.

Wayne Ash they did give me pain meds fir a few days. They also gave me a pain blocker in the anus that helped for a few days. I tried to avoid the pain medication for two reasons #1 is that they cause constipation and I didn’t want to have a hard poop causing more pain. #2 which was really my main reason is that I’ve had bad reactions to opioids after having my gallbladder removed 2 years ago. I get sever chest pain running, very painful to breath and sharp pains from ribs to my shoulders. The first 2-3 times I thought I was having a heart attack the pain was a 10 on 1-10 scale lasting 15-30 minutes before going away right before leaving for the hospital or calling an ambulance. I was diagnosed with sphincter of Oddi (SOD) after around the 5th attack. I was in the ER for kidney stones ( I’ve had these for 25 years and have had a variety of opioids through with no issues) and an hour after they gave me morphine I had an attack. They did a EKG and ruled our heart issues. I was doing journaling for food triggers and found opioids to be my triggers so I try not to take them out of fear

Had mine 6 days ago. Sad to learn that Dr's do not want give pain pills these days because of all the Crack heads. I'll have to be going to the ER every day from now on it looks like to get pain relief.

Am I the only one who’s farts hurt so bad? Is this normal?

[@Gorlontherun]

Mine hurt as well! It’s because the pressure of the gas is going against your rectum which is swollen and has cuts.

@@Gorlontherun ok thank you for replying.

How was the day 1 and day 2 recovery for you bro?

[@SumpNuther]

I'm at day 5, I'm literally shitting in the shower and rinsing it all down. It's pretty gross, but heavenly when your hole feels like it is full of razor blades.

Also, I'm wearing adult diapers, change them out every time I poop, shower, or otherwise. Use about 3 - 4 a day.
