Is having a hemorrhoid going to disqualify me at MEPS?
I am looking to enlist in the Air Force and have an appointment coming up at MEPS. I have a hemorrhoid but its not bleeding. I don’t want to get disqualified at MEPS and was wondering if I should cancel my appointment until I get the hemorrhoid taken care of? Or will I be alright with the physical?

take a razor blade and cut it off, then burn the end to stop the bleeding or get someone to stich it up before your physical.

They don’t check your butt I don’t think, so I think you will be alright. They are looking more for disabilities..

First, don’t lie to the MEPS processing people. If you do not tell them about the condition, you can be charged with a felony.
The military entrance manual states that if the hemorrhoid is Large, symptomatic or history of bleeding. The worst thing that will happen is that they will reject you or ask you to get the condition corrected.
Hope this helps.

Hemorrhoids can be treated with Preparation H and keeping the affected area clean and well medicated. Surgery may be necessary in extreme cases.
Learn to care for this problem and it will get under control. It is important to medicate as soon as they flare up. To wait is asking for a prolonged healing process.
This condition should not be a disqualifying consideration unless it is out of control when you have a physical.

I solved this problem naturally and it was the first time i ever tried a natural cure. I am normally very skeptical but the pain was way worst than the money it would cost to find out if it worked or not. So i tried it and it says it cure most people withing 48 hours bout it didn’t cure me that fast. although i will say that i noticed a huge difference right away it took about a week to feel like they were completely gone.
