There’s going to be TMI so I apologise in advance!
I suffered from painful piles even before I had my son, but after his long birth my backside was left in some mess. They did eventually calm down, I’d get the odd flare up but nothing too bad. I’m now just about 29 weeks pregnant and for the last 3 or 4 weeks I’ve been struggling so bad. The pain I’m in is absolutely horrific. I’ve phoned the doctor 3 times now because they’re bleeding badly too and all they’ve given me is stool softener and a cream, but nothing is working. I swear my backside resembles a baboons and I’m now in tears daily with how sore it is. I’ve tried witch hazel and salty baths but nothing is helping at all.
I’m now petrified of giving birth to this baby as I know it’ll end up worse if that’s even possible!
Does anyone have any advise at all?
