Does anyone have discomfort with tush after going to bathroom? I have had IBS/D for years but latey it is worse. Thinking it might be related to hormonal changes. Thanks. Carine:(

Hi Nancarine, I too have been experiencing irritation there. But I also have irritational in the vaginal area causing discomfort also. I'm 53, still very light, but sometimes long, periods. Yes, I believe it is due to hormonal changes. Try vitamin E suppositories. It's helped me with irritation. LOL

Have you tried a nappy rash cream for babies. I can sympathise Nancarine!

I don't get irritation, I get spasms. Since I have both IBS and Ulcerative Colitis, I'm unsure which is causing this lovely symptom. Oh, the joys!!!!!!!!

I get burning and itching, how nice it that !!!!! Hugs, Moozie

I've found that drinking rose hip tea helps. I've only been drinking one cup a day, so am thinking maybe if I up it to a couple cups a day that would be even better. Have no clue why it helps, but it does, so I'm not going to question it!

Well, I cannot comment on the spasm issue but(no pun intended) I always have baby wipes and that has helped immensely with some of the other stuff mentioned. :wink:
