I just had my internal hemorrhoids banded yesterday, I am still in HORRIBLE PAIN!?
Has you or a friend gone through this? This procedure is supposed to be painless. I'm taking strong pain killers but they don't work. What should I do?

Has the pain increased or come back suddenly? Are you taking the medication as prescribed? Are they working not enough for you or not at all?See your physician. If cou can't reach him/her, try the exchange (after-hours) number for your doc.
If it is gradually going down, I wouldn't be as concerned. Try to relax and do exactly as you were told post procedure.
Stop taking the pain medications and let you body fight the pain naturally, your pain medications are causing you to feel pain.
get a higher dose
never had this done but im really sorry for you
Call the doctor.
If the pain isn't better by tomorrow you probably need to get in touch with your doctor
Learn from the experience. NEXT time they say, "Now, this won't hurt a bit." remember they mean that it won't hurt THEM a bit. Wait it out and use the doughnut pillow. Hope you feel better soon!
I wish you an abundance and intensity of swift and effective healing followed by peace and well being! Did the doctor suggest well contained (waterproof wrap) ice packs?
