And you have a choice or three on how to cure them...
I suffered for many years with hemorrhoids, but they were only mildly bloody, mostly itchy and made me afraid that I had come to the end of my anal-sex life. From the time I entered college until the end of my career as a writer-editor in a corporate setting, I lived a sedentary lifestyle. Oh yes, I still worked in the yard for hours at a time, I still was active within certain bounds. I walked a lot, rode a bicycle, swam, and did other things that probably counteracted my desk job.
But at one point, I simply felt my anal-sex life was over because it hurt to be fucked or was at least very unpleasant. Even clean up after bowel movements was painful and never very efficient. I had to use hemorrhoid creams and wipes along with other methods. I was, however, never as bad off as say truck drivers or my boss at work who eventually had little rubber bands placed around his hemmies, so that they eventually necrophied and fell off. I would think that would feel like little teeth, but that's another post altogether.
And I have to say I am recently aware of someone who is essentially a truck driver who had hemorrhoids so bad, he had to have surgery. He was bleeding and so much so that he had to have infusions of iron. Which made him sick. And he also said that the surgery was the most painful post-op experience of his life. I also happen to know that this person is not great on diet and is also sick a lot with other things. But aside from a change in diet and supplemental exercise, his options were surgery—or what I would never propose to him—wearing a butt plug.
I did not realize back when I started wearing a butt plug and experimenting with materials and sizes and shapes that doctors had invented butt plugs (anal probes, whatever) for precisely the reasons that people should wear the modern equivalents...doctors claimed that anal probes could alleviate stress and depression...and...wait for it...hemorrhoids.
I can attest to the undeniable fact that wearing a butt plug regularly (once I had settled on the glass egg with the thick shaft and the ring base) is what cured my hemorrhoids. Period. My anus and the opening is now as nice and pink and healthy as it was when I was a teenager, and god only knows that I can keep a plug in my ass all day and all night and have not suffered from hemorrhoids for at least ten years. Getting to the point where you can wear a plug even with hemorrhoids has the most to do with material. For goodness sake do not try to wear a silicon plug. No matter how smooth it may feel it is not as good as glass or metal (medical grade stainless steel). And when you first get started use a lot of lube, but don't just use motor oil or something. (Just kidding there). Use a body safe lube.
Thanks for posting this. This is something that concerns me as well. I’m in my early 30’s and have unfortunately dealt with this issue a few times already. I think in my case it was trying to push to long with plugs that we’re irritating me and I was to stupid (horny) to ignore the signs. I’m guilty of my eyes being bigger then my ass a times. Either, way it put me out of commission so to speak for a looooong time, and even when I thought I’d recovered fully they would flare up from time to time. All in all it was a substantial battle for a few years. I never had them treated by anything beyond what I could pick up over the counter. I’m working towards getting more into glass toys as majority of mine are silicone. I do hope that helps reduce the risk. Thank you for the advice and your experience. Sissy Ty
ReplyDeleteHi Sissy, I started out with rubber/silicon and having to fight to keep the plug in because it started irritating and making the hemorrhoids worse. But when I went to glass, is when my healing began. It was quick. And now I wear my plug 24/7/365, except for bowel movements and a few hours at a time during every few days, just to make sure I'm cleaned out. I take Immodium to slow down my digestion.
DeleteI can also attest to the effectiveness of using the glass Divi plug as described at the end of the article, and to being very impressed with how it completely eliminated my mild hemorrhoid issues. The constant massage and stimulation improves the blood flow so much it became completely obvious how my anus returned to a boyish tightness and uniform shape in spite of years and years of anal play (since age 14, and I turn 70 in a few months), yet my youthful looking anus still opens up just fine to receive the larger toys I sometimes use, as my sphincter muscles have been conditioned to easily relax to receive them, and all that still works! I love the glass Divi plug for all day use, and when not using it all day I enjoy sleeping with it inside me at night.
ReplyDeleteNice to see that you have commented here on this issue. Yep I'm still in love with my Devi plug (or also the Icicles #14, which is the same thing, I believe). I think the issue of hemorrhoids is one that all people, men and women should address as soon as they find they are developing them. The older we get the more likely we are to give in to a sedentary lifestyle, and so using a butt plug regularly becomes all the more important.
DeleteIn fact a plug that just sits in the rectum cannot be a cure for hemorrhoids, what helps to cure is the activity that happens , so when you wear your butt plug, keep your sphincter in action ! Open and close, clench and release and always repeat, to activate the blood flow and release the various tensions on the sphincter and the anal muscles. anne4joy
ReplyDeleteYes, it's not a passive kind of cure to keep the blood flowing, but because the sphincter is kept open around the base of the plug and its tendency to close is ever present, any movement you make will cause the sphincter action, even if it is just shifting in your chair, bending down to get to a low shelf in a grocery story, walking (with a bit of a wiggle), which automatically exercises the kegels and anal muscles.
