hemorrhoids?
I am really scared that i could have hemorroihds because i heard that constipation causes it and i have been constipated in the past few years and yesterday i was constipated again and today i went and i strained myself and it was hard then when everything came out red bright blood came out. Later i felt pain and i still do. I know i know go to the doctor and i will on monday but do you think this could be hemrroids
well a month ago i went to the ER but thaey said i didnt have that but i mean could i later develope it or in that month could i have gotten it?

Sounds like ‘roids to me. Good thing you’re going to the doctor to make sure though. Any time there’s blood coming out of an orifice, it’s a good thing to have it checked. I’ve always heard that as long as it’s bright red, it’s ok, the dark red is the kind you have to worry about.
Good luck, and start eating more fiber! And drink LOTS of water. Stool softener is also good.

if ur stool is black instead of brown the next time u go to the bathroom that means that there is blood in there and it probably not coming from hemorrhoids. you should go to the ER again before monday. but if your stool is not black then u almost definitely have hemorrhoids or u ruptured something trying to strain to go to the bathroom. make sure u tell your doc that u get constipated alot, as that is not healthy to strain and he can probably prescribe something for it.

If your pushing to go, you need to take care of the constipation. Eat more fiber in your diet. Prune juice will help too. As far as hemorroids they can appear at any such time. To help get relief, use Tucks Pads. You can get them over the counter. If your doctor says you do not have hemroids, then he will probably schedule a colonoscopy. It could be pollips. If so the doctor will check all that out with that test. During a colonoscopy they can remove any pollips. As far as hemroids
