I had them off and on for several years (from age 24-32) and thought I had something way wrong with my arse. I started getting them every month.

Bought a house in December and have not had one since.

Turns out the new house has a tall elongated toilet and my arse is forever thankful.

ETA If you are reading this and tried everything to prevent them with no luck, consider buying a taller toilet. Thought never crossed my mind and it took me a couple months after moving to realize that was the difference. I don’t even take Metamucil anymore.

Eat lots of fibers, and don't spend too much time on the toilet.


You forgot the most important one: Don't take it up the poop-chute.

Does shite posting while shitting cause hemorrhoids?

If so I’m in trouble.

Do you think that could be contributing to your IBS?

hell no

Doctor prescribed this for my IBS and it made my bowel movement easier and lessened my IBS symptoms. Metamucil might cause some blasting due to high fiber content, but it's worth the risk.

Of course I had to google it out of curiosity. It’s basically what my grandpa would do to pigs to neuter them. How long will you have to wait before anal again?

my doc told me about it for my same issues. its life changing. I get it online or at walgreens. definitely give it a try.

i fill the lid with a hefty pour and mix it with about a cup and half of water and slam it down. its also tasteless.

Experiencing my first one now.

31



I had them a handful of years when I was 21-24. Had to get them cut out a few times... Lucky haven't had any issues in 3 years.

Was strange that I would get them because I only shite once or twice a week if i'm lucky - so it's not like I spent a lot of time on the shitter.

That's not normal. You might have issues more serious than hemorrhoids

I've mentioned it to every doctor I've ever had. They just say to eat more fiber, which I've always ate a lot of vegetables.


I used to take vyvanse last year and that would help me be more regular. I'll do adderall every now and then and that will get things flowing.

If not - maybe once a week and it's nothing to rave about

Oh so you are a speed guy

10 years ago i took vyvanse for few years. This stuff wrecked my body. I'm not a doctor, but my advice is to get off of these speed drugs.
