Hemorrhoids help...Please!!!?

Question

I have a borderline internal/external hemorrhoid, and it is driving me crazy.

It's because I'm 30wks pregnant, and haven't been able to be very active throughout my pregnancy. My diet is pretty good (not constipated or diarrhoea, regular) and I am getting more exercise - but it isn't helping my immediate situation.

It seems to be too large to expect to go away on its own, or to reshape back to normal, but it keeps getting irritated and expanding, every time I think it is improving.

I don't want to take it to the doc, but I am worrying that nipping it off with a rubber band might be the only option for one as big and stubborn as this.

I've had it 2 weeks and it is driving me spare.

Help what do I do!

You are nearing the end and all of those delightful side effects.  Due to the immense pressure that your bottom is experiencing in these last days, hemorhoids tend to appear.  They are painful, burning and oh so itchy.
You can use a topical cream or ointment without worry (check with your OB if you insist).  Just one more thing that goes with motherhood.
I wish that I could have been more helpful, sorry.

Quit being so embarrassed about it....it happens...trust me you are not the first person it has happened too nor will you be the last....trying to get rid of it yourself....would be stupid on your part and can cause you great pain and it may get infected as well....So be brave and take your butt to the doctor and let the doctor take care of it for you ....Good Luck Buddy....
