About 2 days ago I noticed a bright red streak of blood after a bowel movement, naturally I freaked out and immediately became very worried, I looked up possible causes and found that it could be piles or an anal fissure, or at worst cancer, and found that if it is an anal fissure water and fiber will help. So I started to drink more water and eat foods with more fiber, the next time I had a bowel movement I could not notice any more blood and so dismissed it as nothing. Today though, my bowel movement was quite large and hard to pass, I also noticed a slight stinging/burning on one side of my rectum, and I noticed another small amount of blood in a small piece of stool. I haven’t been experiencing any other symptoms apart from the slight stinging/burning and otherwise feel fine, I should also mention that I only noticed the blood after a large stool that was difficult to pass. (as I said, I haven’t been drinking much water/keeping up my fiber intake) I will most definitely be seeing a doctor as soon as possible to rule out anything serious, but would just like to be reassured as I am a bit of a hypochondriac and tend to over think things and work myself up over something that’s not as bad as I’m thinking. In short, I had a large and difficult to pass bowel movement, after my next bowel movement I noticed blood on the surface and on one side of the stool, I worried and researched what it could be, started drinking more water/getting more fiber, next bowel movement was average and I couldn’t notice any blood, started to feel less worried, next bowel movement was again large and difficult to pass, I noticed a stinging/burning feeling that was present, and here I am now, worried again about what could be causing it, the blood is red, not exactly dark, just like if you were cut and blood surfaced, it appears to be normally colored/slightly more bright, and it appears to be on the surface of the stool, it doesn’t separate when in the water, so I’d say it is in the bowel movement, but on the surface, I’m 17 and am not exactly fit but also not too lazy, and I haven’t been experiencing anything else out of the ordinary. Sorry for the overly long explanation, needed to include everything so you could help with what it could possibly be, I’m leaning towards piles or a fissure, but would like a second opinion to help me calm down and be less worried before I see a doctor, thanks in advance.

It isn’t sore and doesn’t bleed, just comes out when I poop and then goes back in again. How can I get rid of this? I eat plenty of fibre, have soft stools, drink only water. Might preparation H help? Can I put it on after I poop and then is it safe for internal ones?

I have been having this symptoms for 2 weeks now and I’m worried. Before consulting a physician I would like to know if there is a herbal mecidine or any home treatment that I can do to stop the bleeding signs everytime I defacate…please help!!!

Help! I’m planning to go on High in Fiber Diet, What food should i eat ? or what information should i know ? effects ? pros and cons ?

Thank you

Is having vaginal sex a thing to avoid when you have a hemorrhoid? Will it aggravate the hemorrhoid/ causepain?
I think my hemorrhoid is internal and pushing out. What is visible is small and round and the color seems to be white/blue I guess. It is not pink.

I have been using preparation H suppositories and the cream.
I am eating a high fiber diet and taking the "gentle laxative" that has an outer coating so it dissolves in your colon.
I am taking Omega-3 Extra Strength once a day.
I am avoiding constipation foods(fried food, cheese, meat), alcohol, and caffeine.
I am drinking pure blueberry- "Just Blueberry" from HEB
I am avoiding sitting on hard surfaces.

My condition does not seem to have improved much. I was wondering if it is okay to have vaginal sex NOT anal sex.
- My question is can I have vaginal sex?
- Will having sex make the condition worse or prolong healing?
- And does anyone have any tips for getting rid of this hemorrhoid that I am not already doing?

Thanks!!
