Why Fiber Might Be Making Your Hemorrhoids Worse
We’ve all heard the advice to "just eat more fiber." But blindly overloading on fiber is actually one of the biggest traps in hemorrhoid recovery. Sometimes, fiber is the enemy.
🧠 The Fiber Paradox
When dealing with severe flare-ups, simply adding bulk to your diet can trigger painful reactions:
Tight Pelvic Floor Strain: Bulkier stool forces you to strain harder, worsening inflammation and pain.
Slow Transit Issues: Excess fiber can cause a "traffic jam" in a sluggish gut, leading to painful bloating and harder stools.
The Real Fix: In acute phases, medical management focuses on stool consistency (making it smooth and easy to pass), not just adding volume.
