Hard Stool and hemorrhoids
I've been struggling with hemorrhoids for about three months now. I had them before I was pregnant, but after I gave birth, they became so large. At first it wasn't so bad. I mean, yes it was. It hurt. ALOT. But it doesn't hurt as bad as it does now.
I feel like my hemorrhoids are getting larger and I'm beginning to get either rectal prolapse or stage 4 hemorrhoids.
It also doesn't help that I've been extremely constipated. I can go about 4 days without going, and when I do, EVERYTHING comes out and it hurts so much.
At the moment, I have pushed back my stool because it feels like needles. I don't know what to do. How can I soften the incoming poop? And what can I do about the hemorrhoids? Please help!
UPDATE:
I drank prune juice and it helped! It helped a little too much lol but I feel so much better. My stools come out so much softer. I have not lost hope.
