So I had a minor hemorrhoid surgery on Friday. I was prescribed vicodin and was told to take certain supplements and and things for a couple weeks.
Im supposed to go to bmt on Wednesday and have to go back to MEPS on Tuesday.

More than likely this will be temporarily disqualifying, I just want to hear what other people have to say.

So am I temp. disqualified?

i am 21 and going through my first case of hemorrhoids. i am totally confused from all my internet research mostly because of all the things they say causes a hemorrhoid, i havent done or had any of them….i.e. no heavy lifting, pregnancy, no constipation etc. i am really bummed about this because for me it is really painful! it started hurting the most on sunday so this morning (monday) i did a saltz bath twice. then i worked from 3 in the afternoon until 11 and im not kidding, but by the end of the night….starting around 8 i was waddling around my work because it was so awful. i did one more saltz bath when i got home and took a vicodin for the pain so i feel okay now….but im worried about work tomorrow because i will be at work for 8 and a half hours! i obviously cant do a saltz bath so id like to know 1) what i can do for the pain
2) how long will this horrid pain last
3) is this really normal? cause according to my reading, everybody has this…it just doesnt seem right

I had rubber band ligation for a small internal hemorrhoid yesterday and it hurts so bad, like the feeling of a stabbing knife inside. I had to get prescribed to vicodin. Everytime the Vicodin wears off it starts to hurt and throb and then slicing pain. The surgeon told me that the rubber band can’t be removed unless I get surgery and said my pain should go away today but It’s not getting better. Anyone ever have the band removed after the procedure? Anyone have excruciating pain after the procedure but then got better? Please help, i’m hurting so bad!
