hemorrhoid pain?!
I am at work writhing in pain right now because I'm about 99% sure I have a hemorrhoid. It hurts to sit, lay down, stand still, walk around... NOTHING helps. The first aid kit at work is out of ibuprofen, too. Any tips on how to ease the pain until I clock out and can go to a walk in clinic?
UPDATE: not a hemorrhoid! Turns out I have an infected boil of some sort right on the edge of my cheek and rectum. Because of the location, they can't drain it (too big a risk of nicking the sphincter and ruining my bowel control forever). But that's okay, because tramadol!
