Dads cancer

I recognise this.

I have the same symptoms, although perhaps slightly less than you outline. Like you I have been looking into the problem.

It seems to me that I should look at my diet first - I eat quite a bit if fibre, so maybe I should eat a little less healthily for a few days!!

Also it seems that the dreaded Pelvic Floor Exercises can help - back to the Squeezy App for me.

If neither of those work then, like you I might head for the GP. I will try everything else first though, because suppositories are not my favourite thing.

I hope your dad gets to grips with his difficulty, because it does seem it is regarded in medical circles as a pretty minor effect.

Hi Steve 

thank you very much for the reply 

it would seem it’s very likely a result of the radiotherapy. And I shall

pass on your advise and get him to look at his diet 

I suppose it’s a small price to pay if it saves lives 

thank you wishing you all the best and I hope you find something that helps you too 

best wishes

Hi Les lesley I no exactly what your  talking about I have the same thing,the thing is I had it well before I had my radiotherapy I've not been to the doctor as it only happens to me if I'm hot I did research it the only thing I found is that the Americans call it swamp arse (true honestly)
