So I’ve seen my doctor twice about this problem. He checked my anus and confirmed I have hemorrhoid. It’s been going on for months now. He told me to "Eat fruits and vegetables and exercise"…

so for the past month and a half, I’ve been eating massive amounts of fruits and vegetables…
Even cut back on fast food (no pizza or burgers)…. avoided eating greasy foods too…

drink lots of water (no soda, not a fan of it)…. My stool is soft but it still hurts when I have a bowl movement. it even hurts walking after i have a bowel movement…

I walk at least a half mile to a mile everyday on campus, back and forth to classes… which sucks cuz it hurts ….

Well today, I had a bowel movement and went running and all that pressure when I ran caused my hemorrhoid to bleed….

Sigh, I don’t know what to do now. I’m listening to what the doctor said but its not helping since this hemorrhoid is "preventing" me from doing good exercise… I’m really getting tired of it because its been going on for so long…. I need some helpful advice guys… Thanks

By the way, im 22 and male if that matters.

Recently I’ve been having bowel movements every morning but the stools are thinner than they used to be, not too much comes out and I haven’t been had an "s" shaped bowel movement in awhile. I don’t have much stomach pain, just some aches every now and then. I bled once about a few months ago when i had a bowel movement and i was worried then. I’m worried again in regards to colon cancer. I am 19 years old and wondering why my stool is thinner and smaller..does that mean colon cancer??

I have been having trouble for a while with piles, well i thought it was an anal fissure, but i went to the doctors today and discovered its wasn’t. It was piles, my doctor gave me a laxitive, that i am going to start using tomorrow and told me to drink lots of water. However i got home tonight and went to the toilet, i again strained with a bowel movement, looked into the toilet, and there was lots of blood. That has never happend before only blood on the toilet tissue. I am getting pretty scared, as i have never had anything like this before. Does this amount of bleeding mean it is healing or not :O Shall i contact my doctor, tell her it has got worse? Or should i do what she told me and if the laxitive doesnt work go back? paranoid here !! Please help!

Last night I had a bowel movement, and it took me almost 20 minutes to get it out. It felt super constipated. Once it went out, I had a bit of sore pain in my anal area and there was no bleeding at all. After 2 hours, I did not feel much. Today I still don’t feel anything at all. Just a tiny bit of pain because of yesterday. Could this be an Internal hemorrhoid ?… I heard you can usual not feel them and they do not hurt. What do i do ?

For a year and a half now I have noticed blood on my toilet paper when wiping. I didn’t do anything about it out of embarrassment and fear until 5 months ago.

Five months ago I went into winter break from college fine. Regular bowel movements, etc etc.

I have always had a somewhat noisy stomach since I noticed blood on my toilet paper, but once again, didn’t really think anything of it. But as my 5 week break came to a close I noticed my stomach making high pitched noises while laying down and that I had become constipated.

It seemed to have happened over night!

My stomach went from being completely flat to bloated and full of crap!

I have never had problem with digestion, for the most part I lived a normal and healthy life.

5 months later I am still plagued with this problem. While it is not as bad as it was, seeing that I am having a bowel movement almost daily. I am wondering if I have an obstruction?

I ask that because I sometimes find it hard to pass gas! I have no pains or anything at all. It’s just being gassy, noisy stomach, and low to mild constipation.

Could I possibly have a bowel obstruction caused by internal hemorrhoids? Or maybe some other kind of problem?
