Hemorrhoids are normal in the last 2/3 of your pregnancy.
I suggest that you ask your ob-gyne for the best way to manage hemorrhoids. They would be able to teach you some techniques.
I believe I have read the topic about hemorrhoids on other blogs. I will try to research for it and give you guys link to give you more idea about hemorrhoids. But like what Polly said, it’s still better to see your OB-gyne.
There are many simple and effective strategies for treating hemorrhoids during pregnancy. Here are some easy tips to follow:
* You should focus on eating a high fiber diet complemented by plenty of fluids to keep you more regular and reduce the amount of constipation during pregnancy.
*Try using an ice pack or other cold compress on the affected area. This can help reduce swelling and help minimize the pain associated with hemorrhoids.
*Try using hemorrhoid pads. These contain witch hazel, and are generally safe to use during pregnancy.
