It's good that you have a diagnosis in hand. Drink plenty of fluids. Avoid constipation. Consume fibre in form of fruits and vegetables as well as add isabgul husk (two tablespoons in one glass of water after dinner). You may need to take a laxative as wellness for short term.
Sit in warm water bath ten to fifteen minutes three to four times a day. If passing stools is painful apply 2% lignocaine jelly.
