They have been terrible. I first started noticing red blood, small clotting when i wiped after a BM that was hard because of constipation. It's not every day though and i was told it's likely caused from internal hemorrhoids. But i also itch like crazy on the outside as well. Should i be using something to help? I was only told to try colace stool softener.

Anyone else have experience w/these?

    I love witch hazel. fold one of the witch hazel or tucks pads in half and just keep it there for at leastan hour. it feels a little gunky but it does help.

    You also might try eating a LOT of fiber. Hope you're feeling better soon!
