TMI - Hemorrhoid questions (Help!)

So, I am due to go into labor any day now. I actually just lost my mucus plug. I was hoping to go through labor naturally but have recently acquired some rather uncomfortable hemorrhoids. Has anyone went through labor with hemorrhoids? Does it hurt during and how does it feel after? How long does it take them to heal? I am scared to try and go natural and make things worse. So I'm leaning towards getting the epidural if it will help. I'm just lost at this point. If anyone could help she'd some light on this situation for me it would really help!!
