I got pp hemorrhoids. Not fun! The hospital sent me with Tucks pad and cortisone cream, but it didn't seem to help at all. I was desperate for something to help and found good reviews for Earth Mama Angel Baby brand cream called Mama Bottom Balm. This stuff is fantastic! It instantly gives this cooling, soothing relief that is SO wonderful. I cannot tell you how great this stuff is!
