Went to the gym this morning. All good. Read an article suggesting that any pressure you should channel to your core, to your torso, and avoid heavy lifting. I focused on chest with cable rows, back with reverse cable rows, and some arms with seated curls. As I said, all good.
stinging
Day 4 – 6pm
Good afternoon. I managed some bowel movement and it instantly helped relieve symptoms. I am drinking a lot and it seem to help. Less itching this afternoon; or maybe I am just getting used to the itching, stinging feeling. I feel everything is on the up at the moment.
Day 3 5:45pm
Its the third day after the procedure and almost 6pm. I feel much, much better now and I have a sneaky feeling that at least one of the hemorrhoids have fallen off. I say that after experiencing the stinging feeling earlier and because I feel so much better. Let’s hope it lasts. Still have the fullness feeling but probably since not all five hemorrhoids have left my body just yet…
Good night followed by stinging period
I had a good night and got up at 5:30am as I needed to pass water; I needed to pee.
I got to the bathroom, sat down and it was clear that I needed more than peeing. It was difficult and accompanied by a stinging feeling. Not sure what is causing it, but being it is now three days since the procedure, I am hoping that it may be the hemorrhoids starting to fall off. I am not sure though. I take comfort in my state changing – thinking ‘no pain no gain’ but who knows.
The stinging was crazy and I was unable to have bowel movement, when it happened it was a low quantity and the stinging got worse. I went to the toilet three times for bowel movement over the next four hours and that’s after trying laxatives, having a double espresso, some prune juice and a full glass of Fybogel – trust me; I REALLY needed the toilet. The stinging has now somewhat subsided after I placed heat on my backside and also just rested in bed – I even managed to snooze a bit, which helped.
I feel better now and is actually about to go for a run. Last time I went running was Wednesday morning before the procedure – its now Saturday and I feel I am ready. Let’s see I might regret it. I don’t think so.
