Hang in there.
Do you have the urge to poop? For me having the urge was the worst. I also had a hard time urinating. Many people recommend doing it in the tub. We were in the process of remodeling our bathroom when I had my surgery so no tub was available. Well my childrens tub was but I chose not to use it. I actually had to go to the ER almost 2 weeks out from my surgery because I was constipated and couldn't pee. I had alot of difficulty peeing. My doctor actually prescribed me some Flomax but I never got it filled. I would wash my hands and turn on the shower which is right across from my toilet. Listening and watching the water helped tremendously. You are still very early on so just hang in there.
Did they remove external or internal or both types of hemorrhoids? I had mainly external but he said he did remove some internal.
