HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It can take 2 to 3 days for the symptoms to decrease.

You can use sitz baths to see if it helps. This would involve sitting in a sitz bath with warm (not hot) water for 10 to 15 minutes , 2 to 3 times daily.
Normally table salt or epsom salt is added to the water.

The use of anti inflammatory pain killers would also help eg naproxen, ibuprofen or cataflam

I hope this helps
