You're especially right to point out that you have to get after the hem. treatment as soon as you feel the slightest indication that a hem. is starting---very important. And oil lubrication and protection both internally and externally, really helps.

For me, I find that warm water soaking makes it worse---so I use an ice cube in a baggy right away---and this heads off the problem. The only time I use warm water (as compresses) is if I am having trouble with a spasm (and pain) after evacuation. I had this really bad with a fissure last year.

One of my problems is that fecal matter from incomplete movements stays in the lower rectum, putting pressure and causing an "irritated feeling" to always be present in the anus, whether there's hem. or not. I hate that feeling! Not pain, but just a constant reminder of "my butt," so I don't have a moment's peace when I'm not thinking about IT.
