Psyllium husk changed my freaking life. Probably TMI, but I used to have very severe hemorrhoid pain. I basically almost never do anymore, it's that drastic.
I'm glad to hear it! If you are lacking fiber, it can drastically improve your life.
I was shitting blood on the daily. Having had surgery for bleeding hemorrhoids, I cannot face that again. Been through some shit, but that was the worst pain of my life.
Psyllium had me back to normal in 1-week. Hope others read our words and it helps them.
Theyβre rather unpleasant, aren't they?
Delicate question: does your butt ever go back to normal after a haemerhoid "heals"? Like functionally and cosmetically lol?
Depends if itβs internal vs external hemorrhoids, and on the severity, I guess? Some can cause small tears and scar tissue. Others are really minor and just make your ass tingle once in a while. Itβs funky like that.
