Changing clothes for a person with hemorrhoids at every prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: I am afflicted with hemorrhoids, and something comes out of me from them. Is it obligatory for me to change my clothes at the time of every prayer?

Answer:
No. If something hits them, wash it and do not take them off. If something from the leakage hits the garment, wash what hit the garment and do not take it off. You may also use a medical pad, which doctors or pharmacies have, that is worn over the exit and blocks what comes out, and you pray in it. Yes.
