I have major pain of hemroids. can i take colace (docusate sodium) pills on a daily basis ? would that get my stool to me soft

Hemorrhoid pain: hemorrhoid pain can sometimes be relieved by using stool softeners. It is okay to use Colace (docusate sodium) on a daily basis for a short period of time to see if it will help. I would also increase the amount of fiber in your diet and your fluid intake for now. You might even consider a daily dose of Metamucil with extra fluid for now. If this doesn't help, see your doctor. Good luck.
