Reply to "Anal pain"

My surgeon has had to do some anal dilations for me, but he's given me the A-OK to dilate myself. I bought a dilator set online. I can't reach well with a gloved finger.

His advice was to pass the one daily (fortunately I'm open enough to pass the largest one, all is open). So I basically nightly do so, then put in my Canasa suppository. So far, so good.

The dilators are called Hegar dilators. This is the set I bought. (I know it says "uterine," but these are what my surgeon recommended for size.)

Again, I can pass the biggest now. They're curved. He said face the curve to the back, and pull gently side to side and backwards (to the coccyx), but not forward. He said that's the safest; to avoid pulling towards the front.
