@Ryanhelpmeunderstand Жыл бұрын
I have 3 grade 3 hemorrhoids, I had them banded (at the doctor’s discretion) and will need a few more banding treatments again after I heal. The first day was about a 3/10 on the pain scale. I took Advil and had virtually no pain after that. After the bands did their job though, I had a major flare up and it’s never hurt this bad before (going to the bathroom) and so I am hoping my hemorrhoids heal and go back to their normal state. I eat extremely healthy foods and use soluble Organic Psyllium Husk (none of the Metamucil garbage with artificial colorings and sugars). Keep strong my friends!

Just wanted to give a shout out to you Dr. Chung, thank you for making these wonderful videos :) To all of you out there, I just wanted to say you are not alone, I have also been through this procedure. My doctor did one banding and I did notice some bleeding for 1 day but after that it was gone. The throbbing sensation was there for a while and on top of that I was diagnosed with a chronic anal fissure so I had to use an ointment to put there even though I had the banding so it was a challenge and painful at times but I made sure to eat lots of fiber, drink lots of water and avoided fast food. I continued like this and then around the 4th week I got my period which was no fun lol. I felt muscle pain in the groin area and the place where the banding was done, I doubled my MiraLAX intake and this helped out quite a bit. After that the throbbing sensation seemed to have gone away for a bit but then I went to get a chair massage and then guy patted down on my upper buttocks and now I am feeling a little throbbing in that area. Today is day 29 and I am trying to eat as much fiber and water as possible. (Cheat time: I did have some sweets and wings here and then but then went back on track with the fiber lol). I still feel a throbbing sensation but I think it may be the massage that I got. I have to go back for follow up in about 13 days and I will let you know how it goes!

This really made me feel at ease. My doctor did not prepare me for this. Extremely painful until the Tylenol kicked in. Still on day one and really looking forward to the pain subsiding in the next few days. Very excited to hear in some of the comments that it fixed the problem. I was losing so much blood in the past 2 years that I ended up needing multiple blood transfusions and iron infusions. My hemoglobin got down to 51 and I never want to experience that again. I will deal with 6 weeks of discomfort if it means that this will finally be a thing of the past.

A little pinching pain and some stiffness inside as if something tightly wrapped around (rubber band doing its job).. later today I am feeling a lot of discomfort because of slightly activated external hems.. perhaps i took sitz bath with very hot water (highly not recommended! learnt it the hard way) this activated pain in my external hems and I had to cool them off with icing since the pain killers were not that effective. Hoping to see things getting better in the coming days..

OMG: I got this procedure done, during the 90s. At least I thought so. Lots of pain, lots. Lots of bleeding. Three of these bandings have been scheduled. One for each week. I got red alert pain, the day after, but still while it got worse, I had the second procedure. The doctor told me, we couldn't stop now, and it got worse after. I didn't go for the third one, after it was confirmed, that I had a double anal thrombosis. It took three weeks until the pain went away and half a year, until that heavy bleeding stopped with every bathroom session. I refused every medical procedure since then, still having problems, because I don't trust any doctor to be the right one for that spot of my body. After watching your video a lot of things suddenly makes sense now.

Day 1: I got 3 bands with no numbing and tbh I’ve never felt pain like it but as the day has gone on it’s definitely eased, taking paracetamol and ibuprofen helps. As much pain as I am in just now, I feel it’s definitely been a good idea and to anyone worried about having this done, yes it’s painful but not impossible pain, more uncomfortable for a day or 2 (hopefully) and then you have your life back

I've had over 30 bandings done in a 4 year period. A few of them were painful. Only had one that the pain was over the top. Its because it was close to the surface. My specialist has retired now. He told me that I'm chronic in producing them. He definitely said at no exception should I get them cut out. Anytime I had a appointment I would take three Tylenol or ibprophan. Most of them were not painful but he would only do one at a time. Body does go into shock for at least a day... after the first day no discomfort. Seemed to work pretty well. Last time that this was done was Oct 2022... since then I've been trying to manage them with my prescription ointment and I have found that rinsing with cool to cold water helps keep the swelling down. Been ryong to muster the courage to see the new Doctor for I'm not sure what he or she will do...

Just had first banding experience. Had to take a fleet enema in the first place and that was so painful, like putting hot sauce up my rectum so that didn't help since I was in excruciating burning pain in the office. Then the procedure was uncomfortable and painful going home. Pain was a 10/10 which freaked me out. Dr assured me after 24hrs I should be all good no pain, take ibuprofen around the clock. I was pissed because that did not apply to me, maybe for others but not me. I was in pain until the 3rd day (now) where the pain dropped off from a 10 to around a 4 all of a sudden. I'm assuming the band fell off with the hemorrhoid. But throughout that time I was in so much pain whether I'm lying down, sitting, standing just pacing around. Only relief was sleeping. Meds helped a little. And going to the bathroom was a nightmare, loose stool first day, couldn't go bathroom 2nd day too painful, and 3rd day I finally managed to start going. Traumatized, not sure if I want to go through that all over again. Dr. was board certified. I wanted to share this because I was googling all day to see if anyone was similar to me having a terrible experience and I read the comments here.

My question is if is normal to use that instrument supposed over 5 times and to do 3 banding , the new GI said he still feel one hemorrhoid and 2 wounds . Thanks for explaining what I didn’t have over this bad experience i just want the pain go away and no more pain killers now they send me gabapenting and clonazepam

When i woke up from my banding i was in so much pain the doctor had to put his finger up there and manually remove 1 of the 3 bands and it instantly took away 50% of the pain. 14 hours later i have pooped out another band, so this leads me to believe i only have 1 band remaining out of the 3.

No more pain. Pain level of cramps- was about a 6, 2nd day- woke up with a little cramping and pressure again pain level about 4, but Tylenol did the trick again also had a small bowel movement. Headed to sleep now and feeling a little bloated but pain level at about a 2. No bleeding and a little pressure.

Day 2 after banding a grade 2/3, Definitely not comfortable, mild pain. Will report progress for any who are considering this procedure. I put myself on 800mg ibuprofen 2-3 times a day. And added a extra stool softener mid day. Edit: it’s been 2 months since the procedure, and my symptoms are gone, very happy with the results and wouldn’t hesitate to go back for more if needed. Fully healed within 5-6 weeks, discomfort gone after week 2 into week 3. I highly recommend anyone who is suffering on a daily basis to just take time to invest in yourself, it is only as embarrassing as you make it.

i had banding done in April last year. It was mostly pain free I felt a bit uncomfortable for a day but that is it. I had 3 done one at a time. He did he procedure on a Tuesday the hemorrhoid fell off on Thursday. This has changed my life for the better. I should have done it years ago. If you have pain with this procedure your Doctor is not doing it properly go to someone else.

Day 1: My procedure was really painful. The first band was acceptable, the 2nd and 3rd were horrendous. I took painkillers right after the procedure, but did not help. The doctor did not use any numbing medicine. I felt like fainting afterwards and it took me about 10 mins to be able to start walking. I had pain all throughout the day and night that followed. Could barely sleep. I had a throbbing pain and a bowel-movement sensation all the time.

Day 2: I had a bowel movement the morning after banding. I dreaded it but it was actually okay. I took some laxatives the 1st day, so maybe that helped. Had a little blood on the stool. A little throbbing pain, just pressure feeling throughout the day.
