That awful, irritating, problem down there…

One topic that not many women want to talk about or even think about is…hemorrhoids. I remember my mom complaining about them when I was younger and I was always disgusted and thought it would never happen to me. I never understood what they were and how you got them. Then I had my first child and honestly the hemorrhoids were the worst part of my whole pregnancy and labor. I had no problems until them. Then luckily with my second child, they were not so bad, but I still had some pains for the first few weeks afterwords. The burning, the itching, the swelling, and just the uncomfortable feeling down there was awful.

Thankfully to Tucks medicated pads that I received in the hospital, I was given some relief. Of course, it took time and tucks and hydrocortisone cream at least made it bearable to sit. Thanks to MomCentral, I was given a pack of the new Tucks Take Alongs to try out. They are medicated towelettes that give you a convenient way to treat hemorrhoid symptoms on the go. These towelettes are so neat and easy to carry with you. I remember how whenever we went anywhere I had a tube of cream and was always embarrassed carrying it with me, now with the Take Alongs you have a convenient way to take care of down there! Now I am lucky I don’t have any horrible hemorrhoids irritating me, but I try these out and they did leave me with a fresh and cooling feeling down there. I can definitely see them being soothing!
