'Roids....

Any tips for long distance riding with hemrhoids? And no, I'm not referring to your riding mate.

It all depends on how bad they are. The first thing is to move around often on the seat. Stretch your legs. Wiggle. Do anything to keep the blood flow happy. As you know, it's the constant pressure that's most aggravating. The second big tip might seem obvious - but make sure you're sticking to a schedule of happy constitutionals. It's very easy to become constipated on a long trip from dehydration and the crap food of the road. I sometimes bring a small stash of a 'natural' laxative like metamucile on the trip if it's going to be more than a few days and always do my best to stay hydrated.

The title made me think you were talking about "Aster-roids". I was wrong, you were talking "Ass-roids". Sorry, never mind.

I have the 'Hawk pad, the Barb Skin, and use Nupercainal anesthetic and a corizone cream.

The suggestion to grease yourself up is a good one. Vaseline works or you could go out & try to find some 1% hydrocortisone ointment. The cream is easy to find, but the ointment might have to be a special order. It doesn't require a prescription. The HC will reduce the itching and relieve some of the swelling if they're not too big.

Hey that reminds me of when I worked in prison. The story goes that there was an inmate that had 'rrhoids so big that he had to wear a jock strap backwards. If he pulled it up too tight, his blood pressure went up!

Just legend, I think.
