Piles

[Captain Sensible]

What works for you?
It's a first for me the doctor has prescribed me Xyloproct ointment. All I can say is the pain of this little grape just gets you down and make me a most miserable person. It's funny how something so trivial and so small can get you down so much. I'm willing to listen to any help, remedy, advice that the good folk of NFC can give me thank you!

If the various creams don't work, then its probably an idea to ask to get referred to a specialist. The options are usually banding, which is what is says on the tin, ie some kind of rubber band which will eventually cause it to drop off, or surgery. I had the latter which I would not necessarily choose to go through again unless there were no alternatives. If you can manage to shrink it, or get rid of it, take a look at your diet. The one thing they continued to stress to me is drink plenty of water.

Good luck, horrible bloody things.
