Okay, so I have had hemorrhoids for about 4 1/2 months now. I do not have insurance yet as I just moved to a different state and the insurance has not been activated yet. I’m 18. When I first noticed this almost 5 months ago I would notice a slight pin pricking sensation on the right side of my anus as I was having a bowel movement. But even before I even noticed that symptom, maybe a couple of weeks before I was lying in bed and woke up with extreme pressure in my rectum. It wasn’t painful, but very irritation constant intense pressure..It eventually went away and I got some sleep. As the months have been going on the pain of going to the bathroom is worse. I notice the pin pricking sensation in more than one spot in my anus as I am having a bowel movement and also some slight burning is occurring. Afterwords it is very sore and as it goes on my anus swells and then the intense pressure comes back. For the past maybe month and a half I have been taking some tylenol rapid release pills after every bowel movement (usually every couple of days i have a bowel movement, on occasion i have had one a couple of days in a row). This takes care of the swelling and pressure..but I can not take the pain of the actual bowel movement anymore. It is extremely painful. I do not strain going to the bathroom, everything is pretty soft. Also on some occasions I will notice some bright red blood in the toilet bowl or on the toilet paper..which is also a sign of hemorrhoids. I have tried using preparation h creams and medicated wipes but they don’t work. I think they are internal hemorrhoids as I do not see or feel anything on the outside. Like I said I cannot go to the doctor right now as I do not have insurance. I will not 100% tell my mom about this..its very embarrassing and will not bring this up under any circumstance to her. A doctor is different. I read to drink more water (which sadly I admit I do not drink water very much, but am definitely going to add it into my every day diet) and eat more fiber. What foods exactly should I be eating that are high in fiber? Nothing fancy or expensive please..im on a budget and need a simple food. Also, what are some other solutions I could do? I heard something about inserting liquid blistex into my rectum..is that safe? Please help me!! I don’t want to live like this anymore!! I really almost cry every time I need to go to the bathroom because it hurts so bad!

I have an internal hemorrhoid. It isn’t prolapsed nor does it prolapse when I make a bowel movement. The only symptom I have from it is that it is EXTREMLY iainful everytime I make a bowel movement.

Is it possible to have an internal hemorrhoid that is painful without it prolapsing? What can I do about the pain? Please help!!!!

I have had a Hemorrhoid ever since I gave birth to my daughter in 2008. It just is determined to stay and make my life hell! I have tried every possible cream and wipes for Hemorrhoids. I really wanna get rid of it without under-going sugery. Being that I don’t have the money for it right now. It is hurting when I try to have any bowel movement, what can I do? I have also soaked in salt-water nothing seems to work. Or maybe I am just not using the stuff as long as I am supposed to or something! If anyone has any ideas let me know PLEASE!

I’m pretty sure I have an external hemorrhoid. First one I’ve had. This is day #4. I had a bowel movement yesterrday and it bled. Hours later and today, I padded it with a wipe and I still see blood. Should I be scared? How long will it last? Should I see my doctor? It’s hard to sit, stand etc. help!

I’ve recently had a hemmoriod removed. Its been 2 days after my surgery and i have so much pain. It burns so much down there and the worst thing is i havent had a bowel movement in like a week. Is there anything i can take that can make me go to the bathroom? its not that i cant, but it burns soo much and theres so much pain that i dont no wat to do with my self. I’ve never been in so much pain my whole entire life. I cant walk nor sit.
