So, I had my takedown on May 22, so it really hasn't been that long at all yet. I know that the early days of using a j pouch can be a little rough. I have been doing much better than I expected though, and the past couple of days I have been having either very loose stool, or little formed "droppings." Today, though, it has been very liquidy, and consequently the butt burn has gotten really bad! It wasn't much of a problem before, maybe just a little irritation- I use a spray bottle and wet wipes only, nothing "dry" to clean myself, follwed by using a cream called "Bottom Butter," so I think that has helped. But right now nothing is helping. I took a bath earlier, and that didn't even help. My question is this... the burn is somewhat on the skin, but I also feel like there is a burn or sting happening a little bit "inside"- like just inside the anus (I'm sorry to get so detailed, I just don't know what's going on!)- so, is this part of the butt burn, or is it something else? I am using Nupercainal today and that helps a little. I wanted to get some Calmoseptine, but haven't been out yet to buy it.
