Haemorrhoids or fissure?

Question

Hi ladies.. I’m in my last trimester (28 weeks almost) and looks like I’m facing slight constipation. What’s the best solution to prevent haemorrhoids & anal fissure? Apart from increasing fibre & water intake, is there any pregnancy safe gel/ ointment or cream to apply outside & inside anus to heal them?
Thank you

Answer

Hi, I went through extreme bad constipation a few weeks ago (at 26weeks) ended up in ER cause I couldn’t push out a stool that was stuck. Was in so much pain when standing, walking or even sitting. Doctor said I had anal fissure ( this new to me) and haemorrhoid (always did) and told me to use this cream 3times a day for the first week then reduce it to 2 times a day a week. This medication did wonders Proctosedyl Ointment 30g - Haemorrhoid Relief. Plus I was also bleeding every time I went to release my bowel from when I found out I was pregnant until I was prescribed this cream. So hopefully this will help you out. Good luck!
