I went to ER last night and had surgery to remove clot from a thrombosed hemorrhoid.. First off when the lidocaine wore off I was in the worst pain I have ever felt in my life. a sitz bath, 2 talwin and a flexeril later and I finally managed to sleep a couple of hours. First BM today was nowhere near as bad as I thought but the burning afterwards was unbearable. I am very sore!! the ER doctor sent me home with anusol suppositories and said to take sitz baths, colace and add fiber to my diet. I know to use wipes, am having to wear panty liners for the spotting and drainage. I also am putting antibiotic ointment on it. Does anyone know if I can still use the proctofoam that I was using before? I have been sort of scared to put it on. also do I need to be taking an oral antibiotic? the ER doc referred me to a surgeon for a hemmerhoidectomy, there is no way in hell!!! I regret even having this much done!!
