Re: Hemorrhoids!

Oh yes, your post brought back terrible memories! I also used Witch Hazel. Constipation became a problem for me long after chemo stopped. Used Smooth Move tea and that helped. There is a great Target brand women's laxative pill I loved, easy on me and worked like a charm! Good luck, sorry for literally the pain in the ass you are going through!
