Review on Medium Orthopedic Gel Memory Foam Donut Pillow for Tailbone Pain and Hemorrhoid Relief - Supports Coccyx, Sciatica, Pregnancy, Postpartum Surgery - Ideal for 120-220lb Individuals by Michelle Davis

According to my doctor these pillows are not suitable for people with bleeding hemorrhoids as they increase blood flow to the part of the body where you are already losing it. However, for a good 2 months of recovery from a hemorrhoidectomy, this was the only way I was able to sit at all. Back then, this pillow was my best friend and I don't regret spending money on it at all. But I also stopped using it when my doctor said (after about 8 or 9 weeks) as it would interfere with the final steps of recovery, and that was fine too. However, it was worth it!
