hemorrhoid and exercising? omg, how embarrassing!?
so i have what is my very first hemorrhoid, i’m embarrassed to say. It is external and has gone down quite a bit. I think it was caused from standing on my feet all day for long periods of time. I’m a stylist and I usually don’t get very much "down" time.. because my bowels are working properly – no constipation, no diarrhea, etc.
anywho, my question is this- i work out regularly 5 times a week, but have laid off the past few days because of this dang hem. If I start back exercising will this prolong its healing or is exercising safe? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
to the responder who was talking about a "vineyard"– lol.. i only have 1 and it’s about the size of a pea…. it’s my first one, but thanks for the answers so far.

when you are working out, are you holding your breath< are you grunting and pushing yourself, if so stop it! hemorrhoids come from many reasons , like shitting on the toilet and grunting out your poo, drink more water it will help and if they are as bad as you say go get them clipped you will be happy you did and so will your lover, I mean who wants to see a vineyard when being intimate
