Quick medical question... (Page 1/2)
Tony Kania MAY 23, 06:11 PM
My Dr. recently recommended that I use a medicated pad for my hemorrhoids. Not a big deal, and many men have this issue. My question lies in how long does it take to dissolve after you insert them? I am on my 13TH or 14TH medicated pad, and I do not think they are dissolving. I swear that I can still feel at least a few of them?

Anyone else have this issue?

I think you're doing it wrong.

Medicated pads are for external use

Cotton makeup pads dipped into warm Witch Hazle and placed on the rectum will help to soothe and shrink hemorrhoids. Just place it over the hole and keep your cheeks together. Learned that in the military.

I tried to quit smoking with the patch, but it wouldn't stay lit. Ended up going cold turkey.

Tony.....the doctor was just employing a colorful, colloquial expression when he told you to "shove it....."

Just keep inserting them. Eventually you will poop out a nice quilted parka.

Which reminds me:

I think they are edibles not suppositories*

Don't you load an old rifle like this with the wadding?

It's just fine Tony.
Keep doing what you're doing.
After a while, you may get cottonmouth.....
