 cloud9: cloud9: cloud9:

A man in the office chuckling to himself when a colleague comes in and asks what is so funny…

‘I made a rather embarrassing Freudian slip this morning’, he replies.

‘What’s a Freudian slip’ asks the rather dim colleague.

‘Well, I was queuing for my train ticket this morning when I noticed that the girl serving behind the counter had enormous breasts.

When I got to the front of the queue to be served I was a little flustered and instead of asking for a ticket to tooting, I asked for a ticket to titting. You see, that’s a Freudian slip when you are thinking of something else and say the wrong thing’.

‘Oh I see’ says the colleague.

The next day (somewhat predictably), it was the dim colleague sitting in the office laughing to himself and the other worker who has to ask him what is so funny.

‘Well, you know you told me about that Freudian slip thing yesterday? I had one myself this morning’.

‘What happened?’ asked the startled man.

‘Well, I was sitting having breakfast with the Mrs. this morning and instead of asking her to pass the milk I said ‘you’ve ruined my whole life you fat ugly bitch.’’

I hate to ask but what makes you think this? If you haven't suffered from them before it is unlikely to have developed over night.

Symptoms would include at least one of: Rectal Bleeding (see toilet paper), an internal itching that you just cannot reach and an obvious (in extreme cases) "bunch of grapes" dangling when you try to wipe.

Whatever ~ take it to the doctor.

I speak as one who has suffered and is now "cured".

An army Major visiting the sick soldiers in the sick bay went to one private and asked, "What's your problem, Soldier?"
"Chronic syphilis, Sir."
"What treatment are you getting?"
"Five minutes with the wire brush each day."
"What's your ambition?"
"To get back to the front line, Sir."
"Good man," said the Major.

He went to the next bed, "What's your problem, Soldier?"
"Chronic piles, Sir."
"What treatment are you getting?"
"Five minutes with the wire brush each day."
"What's your ambition?"
"To get back to the front line, Sir."
"Good man," barked the Major.

He moved to the next bed, "What's your problem, Soldier?"
"Chronic gum disease, Sir"
"What treatment are you getting?"
"Five minutes with the wire brush each day."
"What's your ambition?"
"To get the wire brush before the other two, Sir!

Grade 2-4 Piles

When symptoms have progressed past Grade 1 and haven’t cleared up within several weeks, many people turn to a surgical procedure. There are several surgical options available, depending upon the severity of the piles and the advice of your GP.

Sclerotherapy
Sclerotherapy is a procedure that involves injecting a chemical into the site of the piles. The purpose of the injection is to cut off the blood supply to the vessel. Like banding, people who have this procedure may require more than one treatment.

Rubber Band Ligation (also called “banding”)
With banding, a surgeon places a small rubber band around the base of the swollen blood vessel, cutting off its blood supply. This may cause the blood vessel to shrink and gradually disappear, and may lead to some scar tissue taking its place. This procedure is considered to be simple, although often more than one treatment may be necessary.

Haemorrhoidal Artery Ligation Operation (HALO)
In this procedure, an ultrasound devise is placed in the rectum, which helps the surgeon locate the feeding artery that gives blood to the pile. The feeding artery is then ligated (stitched), which cuts off the blood supply to the pile.

This procedure is less invasive than other surgical procedures, but may be less effective. Fewer surgeons provide HALO than surgical haemorrhoidectomy and PPH.

Haemorrhoidectomy
Surgical (Open) Haemorrhoidectomy is reserved for people with very serious cases of piles. A surgeon uses a scalpel to cut away up to three of the enlarged or swollen haemorrhoidal cushions, while the patient is under general anaesthetic. This procedure usually provides permanent relief. People who undergo this procedure usually feel post-operative pain, and will have to stay in the hospital for at least four to five days after the procedure is performed. They may not feel able to resume their normal, day-to-day activities for two weeks or more.
