How to stop external hemorrhoid bleeding?
I’m fairly young I’m under 30 and I have hemorrhoid. I’ve had them before and they would go away in about a week it was never a big deal for me. So I thought nothing different of it this time. I can tolerate the pain, itching and burning and quite honestly most of the pain and itching has gone way and it’s been about 3 1/2 days since i noticed it… HOWEVER, now the external hemorrhoid is bleeding… thats new to me. How do I get rid of this hemorrhoid, what do I do about the bleeding? I bought the PrepH wipes to clean up every once in a while and also been putting some hemorrhoid cream on it. Is the bleeding just part of the healing process? I’m a full time student and not covered under medical insurance, so I can’t go see a doctor. Anyone else have this happen or know what to do?
I don’t eat much. I eat plenty of fiber. My diet is fine… which is why I don’t know why I even got the hemmohroid. the only thing I can think is I’m a DJ and been hailing around heavy equipment and speakers which might have caused me to strain . . . I don’t know. But is the bleeding something I should worry about? Or just kind of deal with it until the hemmohroid goes away?
what i meant to say is that I don’t eat all that much meat in my diet. It’s a lot of veggies, fruits, weat bread, cerels, oatmeals . . .

this is really nasty but ill still answer it. Buy some prep H and eat lots of fiber and less meat. This will make your stool softer. Also when you clean after taking a crap tap DO NOT wipe. This should help stop the bleeding. the bleeding is not part of the healing process. you ruptured the hemroid if you tap and dont wipe you wont rupture it as easy.

hyunATL: that is not helpful, he gets fiber and is low on meat. I have the same problem. it has been bleeding for 4 days. i tried prep h, nothing. I tried using gentle pressure to clot it, nothing again. i even went to the hospital, and guess what they were NO HELP. all they wanted to do was draw blood to see if i have lost too much blood. they wouldn’t cauterize it. in fact all they did was jam 2 fingers in and squeeze which has made it worse.
