Hemorrhoid?
I do have an external hemorrhoid because I had a doctor examine me, and It never used to bleed really ever. Now these past 3 months I’d say I’ve bled about 11 times or so. It is bright red blood nothing bad looking or anything like that. It just seems I’m starting to bleed more frequently than usual. Once during this 3 month period I went for almost 30 days without any problems whatsoever. Now it seems like its acting up, and its never a lot of blood at all, a few drops, and some blood on the toilet paper. Anyone else experience anything like this with your bleeding hemorrhoid?
**3 Months ago I did have a doctor examine me and confirm I had an external Hemorrhoid.**
I too thought this bright red blood was from my Hemorrhoids,this is the first time I noticed it.But I also felt very weak like I would pass out.Not dizzy ,not nauseated.a bit of fever. I was told to go to Em er. There I found out By rectal exam It was not hemorrhoids because it was to far up(bleeding)and I was told I was anemic.Hemoglobin very low.With that I received 2 Blood transfusions,inter venous , and a drug The nest day the surgeon did a Gastrcopy(throat to stomach and discovered I had a Ulcers From now on I am not diagnosing myself Best to go to a Specialist.
First of all you need to seek a professional opinion - even if you feel it is embarrassing.
You need to be sure that this is ‘just’ a hemorrhoid and not something more serious.
Next remember that lots of people have this problem at one or another point in their life.
There are a couple of things you can do. See that you eat enough fiber to keep your stomach soft. Stay away from milk but drink plenty of fluid in general. If you feel you need to go - then go. Don’t hold it back - it will cause the stool to get more hard if it stays too long inside.
After a restroom visits make sure that you clean your self up good - swiping with paper is not enough. Wash your self or buy special swipes for hemorrhoids. You might want to supplement with a special lotion that will take the pain and make the hemorrhoid shrink. Another help is taking a hand shower and shower your behind with cold water while you attempt to press it in again. Good luck and don’t forget that a lot of people had that problem at one or another point. You just need to find a way to deal with it and it will diminish as to where it is not a problem.
