How long do postpartum hemorrhoids last ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varies : It is different for everybody but as the intra-abdominal pressure is getting back to normal, venous congestion in hemorrhoids will also get back to normal. Ongoing, consipatipn can add to this problem, however. Eating high fiber, drinking lots of water, sitz bath can all help.
