HELP! I am severely constipated and have a hemorrhoid! Any Suggestions on what to do besides the obvious?
I am taking a suppository for the hemorrhoid which is internal btw, and a probiotic plus a "power colon cleanse" pill I am trying out that I got in the mail as a free sample. I am eating fiber, drinking water, and doing almost everything I can think of but this has been going on for A LONG TIME….it’s been like a week. But I’ve always had constipation problems! What is wrong with me???

Ok, first off are you sure you’re getting enough fiber? The standard for a human adult is 25 to 30 grams per day, plus the eight glasses of water at eight ounces each.
Second, have you tried exercise? A brisk 30 minute walk in the morning in addition to 5 minute walks every two hours can help get the whole thing moving.
Third, since I’m assuming that you’ve been eating enough fiber and all, I drank about two tablespoons of pharmacy grade mineral oil when I was badly constipated after giving birth and it worked like a charm.
Fourth, that power colon cleanse pill you got free in the mail may be causing the problem if it’s trying to clean too much "spackle" off of your colon all at once. In addition, the probiotic doesn’t really help with constipation, nor does the suppository.
As to "what’s wrong with you", you may be genetically inclined to developing constipation. If that’s so, then you’ll need to be really careful with both your diet and your exercise.
that stinks! green leafy veg are a very good source of fiber, that and lettuce will help everything "go through", if your hemorrhoid is very uncomfortable, you can take an epsom salt bath and that should help some.
well my brother had a constipation for like a lil less than 2 weeks and he did everyting he possibly could, went to the hospital etc and nothing was working. so eventually it just passed and he started pooping.
This might or might not work but when i eat late at night and eat again in the morning i ALWAYS go poo right after.
also my mom said that if you drink a glass of water in the morning, you get better. i don’t if thats true or not but you can try.
Drink a lot of water, sit on pillow if you sitdown for long periods of time, eat foods that move through you quickly. If you arent having regular bowel movements then use the cleanse. A hemorrhoid is a sign that you arent getting good blood circulation down there
