sorry girls this is way too much info but i have awful piles. they hurt so much. i went to the toilet earlier and when i got up i saw blood in the toilet. i panicked and thought it was the baby. thank God it wasn't but my piles hurt and i got an awful fright earlier when i saw the blood. anyone else got this problem.
again sorry for tmi

I have had problems with this. Try taking Metamucil and a stool softner that you're doctor recommends. For awhile, mine were so painful I would almost be in tears. It's still not normal, but I think it's because of the preganancy. I hope it gets better for you.

yeah i have been in tears at times too. its so painful isn't it. thanks for your advice

I've got them and they are horrible I've never gone to the gp about mine because I am too embarrased but I will do eventually if they don't go away.

You're welcome.

There are lots of treatments for piles. You can get hemorrhoid (piles) creams, sprays, suppositories, pads etc.

Check your pharmacy for good topical meds.

In the states we have Preparation H, and Tucks medicated pads for piles... both work great!
