ooh dear been there done that !!!!
try lots of fibre or those pro and prebiotic drinks, they make your poo a bit softer and stop you from having to strain so much as it just slides out easier, keep them clean but use gentle soap or they will sting like ******* (god this sounds awful!)
loads of creams and stuff in the chemist/ supermarket (but if they are really bad go to your doctor and ask him for the strongest stuff you're allowed to be given) these will ease the pain as you put it directly on them and they will go numb and then after a while shrink back inside!
good luck hope they get better soon :-)
Witch hazel in a tube from Boots .Keep it in the fridge and apply with cotton wool ..this will help to shrink them up .
Germoloids are good too .Fibogel ..that yukky drink you mix with water is a good one .It makes the stool soft and bulky and easier to pass ....so less.. ..Yikes !!
But if they are giving you real hassle then do go to the doctor .
They have seen it all before so don't be embarrassed .Don't leave piles if they are bad, like my husband did and ended up having an operation for a fissure. They can shrink them with an injection these days.
