She needs to take either stool softener capsules for awhile or make taking a fiber laxative a routine from now on. A fiber laxative is not addictive and is good for you - - - one brand is Citricel- - - - you mix it with cold water a couple of times a day and it tastes like orange Tang (drink it fast, though). A lot of doctors recommend it. Last, but not least, tell her to go to the GNC store and buy a bottle of Rutin. I'm sure you can buy it either there or online at a vitamin site. I took it years ago and it helped so much. Here's a link to more information on Rutin (a bioflavonoid). http://ezinearticles.com/?You-Must-Use-Bioflavonoids-for-Hemorrhoids&id=75047 The over-the-counter creams are usually good temporary relief. other than that, tell her to sit on a cushion and not to sit for long periods of time.

Tell her to go buy Tucks, use them instead of toilet paper. Buy some prep h as well, and warm baths where she just soaks for 10 mins at a time will help tremendously. If they persist for more than a week, she really should go see a specialist. Also, a high fiber diet will help her not to "strain", I recommend metamucil taken daily, they come in pill form, and tell her apples, fiber rich cereals, and dehydrated fruit help as well. It's not a comfortable thing or conversation, but happens to a lot of people, new mothers, or not! If not too serious, there are some things that will help sooth the imflamation and the discomfort.
