Hemorrhoids?

I never really knew what hemorroids was and still really don't but I think I have them now. It's embarrassing but I know it's really common during pregnancy. It looks like a bubble and kinda hurts. How can you treat them?

Preparation H can strink it but im.sorry to tell you I had one in my last pregnancy and I still have it to this day. It doesn't hurt anymore but I still try not to strain  or it will get bigger. If its new try to wipe softly and stay off your butt. Lay on your side. When I was pregnant with my first baby I couldn't go for long car rides due to hemorrhoids

When in doubt, use the cream. It can do a lot of good. You can always call your Dr and ask, but I'm pretty confident that's what they are.

Hate to tell ya, but if it's right on your butt hole that's what you've got sis. Go buy some hemorrhoid cream at wWal-Mart and slather it on. There are also wipes specifically for that purpose also. Don't be embarrassed, if it doesn't hapen during pregnancy for most of us it'll probably happen during delivery. Good luck!
