Moms, did anyone else get piles after giving birth? 😭

Hi moms! Just wondering if anyone else experienced piles after pregnancy or giving birth? I started having some discomfort and honestly felt a bit embarrassed about it at first. 😅 Did you just manage it at home with diet, more water and rest, or did you eventually go see a doctor? I’m not sure when it’s something that should actually be checked, so would really appreciate hearing what worked for you. 🤍

Hi mum! Yes, I actually went to Dr Dennis Koh at Colorectal Practice because I didn’t want to keep overthinking about it anymore 😅 After the consultation, he explained that surgery would be the better option for my condition, so I decided to go ahead with it. Everything went smoothly, and I’m now focusing on my recovery and following his advice. If you’re experiencing something similar, I would say it’s better to get it checked instead of leaving it and worrying about it at home. At least you’ll know what’s going on and can discuss the right treatment options with your doctor. Hope this helps! ❤️

Hi yes, I actually went to see a doctor and he gave me some medication because I really couldn’t take it anymore 😭 For the meantime, I think you can try to eat more fibre or drink fibre and also try not to strain too much during bowel movements. hope this helps mom! 🙏
