Anyone had issues with hemorrhoids getting worse or being caused by radiation as primary treatment?

Thanks

yes, badly. Doesn't happen to everyone and there are treatments that will reduce the problem.

I ended up getting some laser treatments to get the problem resolved.

Problems with 'rhoids are fairly common. Tell your RO about them. Mine gave me some cortisone suppositories that helped a lot.
