This is sort of embarrassing but here goes…

When I was around 11, I had a problem with constipation and I developed an external hemorrhoid. I never had it looked at by a doctor, because it’s never bothered me. Well, now I’m 17 and its still there. Yesterday it got a bit larger, because I guess I was slightly constipated. It’s still not bothering me, but I was just wondering if there is any chance it will go away on its own, or will I have to have it removed by a doctor? I’ve read that they can go away on their own with home treatments within a few weeks, but I’ve had it for 6 years and never treated it, so I don’t know…

I asked this question last night, and someone told me I need to change how I eat and exercise more. I don’t think that’s the answer. I get plenty of fiber and I am at a normal weight. I have not had a problem with constipation in a long time, I only get constipated once in a great while, usually when I’m so busy and stressed that I don’t drink enough water.

I had my son 2 months ago, and as a result from the pushing I got a hemorrhoid. I am constipated and it hurts when I poo. it feels like there is tearing when I push, and when I wipe there is blood. it wasn’t too bad the first couple of times after I had the baby, but it is getting worse. it doesn’t continue to bleed after im done wiping. I was just wondering how much blood is normal when you have a hemorrhoid?

when i went to the bathroom i had blood on the toilet paper and in the toilet bowl after the bowel movement. this happened friday night after a night of drinking (beer only). and it happen today again but not as bad as friday night. i havent done nything to treat this other than drinking more water and trying to get more fiber in…

tonight i stuck my finger in a little bit (my butt) and i felt something. i dont now how to explain it but i guess it felt a bulge. and there was blood on my finger. could this be a bulge vein or fisure? i do a lot of sitting during the day and i heard thats not good for this. i also intake caffeine during the day and sometimes a lot. and a few beers during the week….

what should i do to treat this? i know goin to a doctor is the easy answer but i want to try to treat this b4 going. i had this happen earlier in the year and it cleared up iin a week…. i believe this to be internal hemroids. are there any oinments to buy at the drug store
only serious answers

I am 19.
I have had what seems like external hemorrhoids for years (3, or more…)
It itches and sometimes stings.
It is sometimes large, but usually medium in size.
Also, soft and mobile.
I know this is probably gross, but I would like advise.

I’m looking for the best way to treat hemorrhoids without surgery.
