Hi,
Sorry to know about your condition and I can understand your concern.
External hemorrhoids are sometimes really painful.

in my opinion,yes you can take vicodin as you have to go to the doctor tomorrow.Hydrocodone in vicodin will certainly reduce the severity of the pain.
Please try to use soft bed and do not sit on hard surfaces.
I hope this answers your question.
Please feel free to ask a another question.
Thanks,
Dr.Prabhas Verma
