I have had hemorrhoids once before and used these wipe things with witch hazel. A couple of weeks ago I was really constipated and had a monster poop, I know I should eat fiber, drink a lot of water, etc. but there was nothing I could do at the time except get it out. So I got an external hemorrhoid and treated it with the witch hazel wipes and thought it went away but now I'm pretty sure it's back. I haven't checked yet but my butt's itchy, same symptoms. So, how should I treat it? thanks peeps, I really appreciate it.

Are hemorrhoids normal during pregnancy? Please help, this is a very serious matter. I can't keep my mind on anything!!! Don't know if I need to focus on contractions or my butt!
