Hello, my name is Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi. I understand your concern.
Some advices that I can give to you are :
-Use topical treatments. Apply an over-the-counter hemorrhoid cream or suppository containing hydrocortisone
-use pads containing witch hazel or a numbing agent.
-Soak regularly in a warm bath or sitz bath. Soak the anal area in plain warm water 10 to 15 minutes two to three times a day
-eat solid foods for the diarrhea
-drink fluids
-take some probiotics
Hope my answer was helpful, if you have any other questions I'll be glad to help, thanks!
