I had surgery on September 5, 2018. I have been wearing the compression garment that was provided to me by my surgeon. I keep getting awful bleeding hemorrhoids. I thought it may be the garment. I slept one night without it and was almost completely better the next day. I put it back on and can instantly feel hemorrhoids forming. Every time i have a bowel movement. The toilet is filled with blood. The garment is too big now but still gives hemorrhoids. I have tried differnt ones, same result?
