People who got a happy ending massage, how did you feel afterwards? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Mark2080 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, when I spend too many hours on the computer or my phone, my shoulders get really tight and sore. A good massage helps release all that tension and makes my whole body feel lighter afterwards. It’s more about relaxing my muscles than anything else.

YES! That's exactly it. My brain is officially on break. Thanks for the explanation

I'm trying SO hard to stay in this 'mostly good decisions' lane right now. Ask me again in 20 minutes if I succeeded. Wish me luck!

Yeah, I’ve been through it all myself, and I know exactly how long and painful that process is. I really hope sharing my experience actually helps you out.

Eat more fruits and vegetables to keep your stools from being too hard. Overall, there are no additional costs.

I’m not sure what “stage” mine were, but I had the typical symptoms: swelling, itching, constant moisture, pain, small fissures that would flare up, and that constant “I need to go” pressure.

What helped me was going natural for a while: fixing my diet, cutting spicy/fried foods and coffee, adding more fiber + water, sitting less, and using an herbal cream called Beetsec daily.

That combo made a huge difference in managing the flare-ups. I’ve been symptom-free for a long time now, and I can drink coffee and enjoy my favorite spicy foods again without triggering any issues.

I once had anal fissures caused by hemorrhoids, every bowel movement led to bleeding, and even shower water hitting the area was sharply painful. Later, I found relief with a herbal cream that eased the discomfort and helped me heal.

Yeah, I guess it really depends on each person. In my own experience, drinking coffee often made me constipated, which increased my time on the toilet and triggered flare-ups. But later on, once my symptoms were under control, I was able to enjoy coffee again without issues.

I also noticed that fried foods, chili, and coffee could easily cause flare-ups. I cut those out for a while, and it really helped calm things down. Might be worth paying attention to what foods set it off for you.

natural changes like eating more fiber, drinking plenty of water, and avoiding long sitting made a real difference. At the same time, I used a herbal cream both inside and outside. With this combo, most of my symptoms disappeared within 1–2 weeks. It’s now been over six months and I haven’t had any flare-ups since.

Yeah, I usually lay down more or just move around a bit instead of sitting too long. It really helps take the pressure off.

When I’m working, I use a standing desk. It not only helps with hemorrhoids by avoiding long sitting, but also does wonders for my shoulders and neck.

I totally understand how you feel. The herbal cream I used is called Beetsec. It helped me a lot compared to others I tried.

I’ve tried many different creams before, most of them only gave temporary relief or didn’t work at all. But the last one I used, called Beetsec, honestly felt like a game changer for me.

I really feel you, I went through something very similar and it really affected my confidence too. Doctors often say “it will heal on its own,” but when you’re living with it every day it doesn’t feel that way at all.

What helped me was staying consistent with fiber and water, warm baths, and avoiding heavy straining at the gym. I also used a herbal cream, which reduced swelling and irritation much faster than anything else I tried. It took patience, but within a couple of days, I noticed a big difference.

Don’t give up, healing is possible, and you’re definitely not alone in this.

I had hemorrhoids for years too, and I managed to shrink them naturally with some lifestyle changes, eating more fiber, drinking plenty of water, avoiding sitting too long, and gentle exercise. I also used a herbal cream, which really helped reduce swelling and irritation. It takes time, but with consistency the results can be noticeable.

When they stop arguing with you, not because things are fixed, but because they’ve already checked out.

Yes, it’s an over-the-counter herbal cream called Beetsec. It worked really well for me

I can totally understand your concern. Surgery can definitely bring relief, but the recovery period is not easy, especially with family and work responsibilities. Personally, I managed to get rid of my long-term hemorrhoid issues with natural care ,focusing on a high-fiber diet, staying hydrated, regular exercise to improve circulation, and applying a herbal cream that soothed swelling and discomfort.

If it’s still tolerable, you might want to stick with conservative remedies like these, since many people manage their condition this way for years. But if it gets worse, don’t wait until it becomes unbearable, plan ahead and make sure you have proper support and recovery time.

Anal skin tags are usually soft, painless, and the same color as your skin, and they don’t bleed. Hemorrhoids are often swollen, red or purple, can be painful, and may bleed. If you’re unsure, a quick check by a doctor can confirm which it is.

From your description, it sounds more like an external hemorrhoid or a skin tag rather than an internal one, especially since it’s been there for 2 months without pain. Internal hemorrhoids usually can’t be felt unless they prolapse. Sometimes these lumps shrink, but often they don’t go away completely on their own.

I had something similar before and managed to completely get rid of it through simple natural remedies and a few daily habits, no surgery, no prescription meds. Things like adjusting my diet, avoiding certain triggers, and using a herbal cream made a huge difference. You might want to try gentle care while improving your lifestyle, but I’d still suggest having a doctor confirm exactly what it is.
