Hey that was a Public Service Announcement - seriously.
I have had them for like the last 5 years and finally figured out it was any dairy that I ate anything with milk in it - couldn't eat pizza, queso, ice cream, cream-based soups, sour cream.
If I did they flared up - couldn't play tennis, had to stand up to work, couldn't fuck - it was literally a pain in the ass.
After shoulder surgery I didn't want butt surgery so I researched every know way to get rid of those little fuckers.
Now they can use lasers, chemicals to freeze them, surgery, old way of banding and now this new system of banding. Further researched, read reviews, etc.
Any way this procedure they don't cut on you, supposed to be pain free, you can go back to work that day and do anything you want except no squats, lunges, leg press for 3 weeks.
I was tired of living with the discomfort and pain as sometimes you eat out and don't know something was made with dairy, besides being a Texan I missed queso and who doesn't like an occasional slice of pizza.
So I had the procedure and it is good as advertised no pain easy took like 15 seconds.
The reason I'm posting is that most people hate to say they have hemorrhoids. Because it is embarrassing.
But in my research I found that 50% of people will have them by age 40 and 75% of people will get them sometime in their life. My doctor does over 900 of these new-banding procedures a year. I say it is new the procedure received FDA Approval in 2000. So newer than surgery but plenty of time and track record.
Just spreading the word about this incredible painless procedure because the odds are that about half on this board will have them.
Per my doctor here are some ways to help prevent getting them.
Never sit for more than an hour or so - get up and walk around. If you are driving stop every couple of hours and walk around for a minute.
For guys do not sit in the shitter with your cell phone - he said this is the worst thing you can do.
The girls have it right - drop your load and get off the pot.
Drink lots of water - stay hydrated.
Eat veggies with fiber.
Anyway looking forward to working/playing tennis/working out/fucking uninterrupted in 2025!
Skol to the Buttocks!
