Hello, Thanks for your query. Avoid sitting down for long periods of time. When seated, avoid sitting on hard surfaces and alternate sitting on each side of the buttocks. Take nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) such as aspirin or ibuprofen to reduce pain and improve your ability to move around. You can purchase a doughnut cushion or pillow to sit on. Eat foods high in fiber to soften stools and avoid constipation. I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
