Bleeding from hemorrhoids or more serious?
Today I bled a lot into the toilet while having a BM. It wasn’t bright red…not dark red either…in between. The water was all red and there was clots and maybe some tissue or something (looked like small, thin squares of red flesh). I think I have a hemorrhoid cuz I can feel a bump there, but my stomach and intestines really hurt and have been for like 2 weeks. You think the blood is from the possible hemorrhoid or something worse? Dont tell me to go to the doctor…i don’t have insurance and don’t want to.

That doesn’t sound like hemorrhoid bleeding. Don’t they have a free or sliding scale clinic in your town that you can go to for free or for a reduced price? It sounds like something you should definitely at least talk to a doctor about. A lot of times, you can call the local emergency room and they can tell you if it sounds like something you should be seen for.
as a temporary fix you can try preparation H, doesn’t cost much. believe me it will only get worse. i know you don’t have insurance but you really need medical help. been there.
OK first call and make a doctors appointment.
and start drinking lots of water since bleeding hemorrhoids are normally cause from straining and added pressure from hard stool or constipation. Make sure you eating fiber rich foods and stay away from process foods like cheese.
