I am almost 31 weeks pregnant and I have a hemorrhoid. It started a few days ago as a minor annoyance and now it hurts extremely bad. I can barely move or walk. It’s an external hemorrhoid and it’s bigger then a pea but smaller then a grape. It hurts so bad. I used Preperation H because it was on my approved list of medications but it didn’t help at all. Will it go away on it’s own and how long does it normally take? Is it normal for it to be this painful?

i dont kno wat to do

So I’m a 20 year old male and I have a 21 year old boyfriend. Long story short, we have been dating for almost 3 months and want to take it to the next step, i.e. having anal intercourse. Well I found out that I have internal hemorrhoids a little over a year ago. Basically I would bleed when I poop. Well now I take stool softeners and laxatives to help me go to the bathroom a lot easier. I drank only water, and don’t eat beef at all. I have on occasion not taken the stool softeners, and discovered that my poop hardens when I don’t, so I take them daily. How long r hemorrhoids supposed to last? Is it ok for me and my boyfriend to have sex even with my hemorrhoids? Will these hemorrhoids effect us having sex? Much help is appreciated, oh and yes my boyfriend knows about my hemorrhoids.

Has anyone ever had this surgery and how painful was it and how much time off work did you have to take?

I’ve been feeling bad for about 3 years and just thought, hmmm what if it’s small bowel cancer?
I’ve had some particularly bad problems in the last 8 months but even then, not something too dramatic…
