I’m a female in my mid 20’s with 2 children. I have developed a prolapsed hemorrhoid and have had it for about a year and 1/2 now. At least I first noticed it a year and 1/2 ago. I looks like a piece of reddish/pinkish swollen skin protruding through my anus. It stick out all the time but it does get smaller between bowel movements. It causing discomfort as well. What will the Dr. do for me? I plan to go see her soon for this. What can I do at home besides sitz baths? I’ve been putting Vaseline on it mainly to relieve itching. I’ve been reading about treatments online and the idea of any sort of surgery freaks me out!!! I had my gallbladder out back in March and I have enough digestive issues from that and I keep reading people having problems with that after surgery. I’ve also heard it’s terribly painful! I have 2 little ones at home and my husband works a lot so that really worries me! Also, I read it can become strangulated, how logn does it take for that to happen? Will it get worse before that happens or will it just happen out of the blue? I’m SO SCARED! HELP!!!!

A couple of weeks ago i found a lump inside my anus. I was also feeling ill so i went to the doctor and she checked it out and said i had a hemorrhoid which i got ointment and suppositories for. It was originally itching and the ointment stopped it itching but it now hurts and neither of the treatments are making any difference. I didn’t sleep at all last night because of it and i feel sick and cant eat anything.

Is there any chance this will go or is it something else? I am scared to go back to the doctor in case it is something worse.
I was worried it might be an anal abscess since i seem to have all of the symptoms for it.
Pain in the anal area or buttocks
Fever
A lump in the anal area
Painful bowel movements
Lower abdominal pain
Fatigue
Swelling in the anal area or buttocks
Night sweats

But i suggested that to the doctor and she said it would be too unbarable to even sit down if i had an anal abscess. Im not sure how accurate that is.
I do find it strange that it would be a hemorrhoid because I am a 20 year old male and I never feel constipated and I already eat all the right foods.

i had a fissure and exterior hemorrhoid about month ago and after doing all recommended treatments they both healed. everything was fine for about a week and now its starting to hurt to have bowl movements from the beginning when it starts to travel out. i have a feeling i have an interior hemorrhoid and do not yet have my insurance cards and need home remedy suggestions while i wait to see a doctor. bowel movements usually happen slowly and hurts. i have an adult rash and to what feels like a rash inside also. when i wipe there is like a total amount of a drop of blood on the toilet paper and there are sensitive lumps on the outer part of the anus. im using preperation h ointment and wipes and drinking lots of liquids and eating a lot of fiber…tho it feels as softer poop does not help. does anyone have any suggestions?

Greeting’s all!!!
I had my baby 2 and 1 week ago (was induced and in labor dor 24hrs but ended up in a c-section). In the hospital they gave me a lot of stool softners and due to that I got diareah. I came home after the 4 days in the hospital and everything I ate I ended up with a bowel movement. Well, due to that I now have internal hemorrhoids. MY GOD they are horrible and so painfullll!!! Even my vaginal area hurts at times. Has anyone experienced that vaginal pain also or is it just me (usually after bowel movements)? And are you cured or still with the hemorrhoids? What did you use or do? PLEASE HELP!! I can’t stand this discomfort anymore and what worries me the most is the vaginal preassure (pain at times).

Anxiosly awaiting for a responce!!!

I can’t go to the doctor, so no one say that please.
I have itchiness, it feels like a rash sometimes, and sometimes I feel like I have to go, but don’t. Large bowel movements make it bleed.
These symptoms lead me to think it’s hemorrhoids. However, I thought hemorrhoids were visible, and nothing is visible. I heard that anal fissures can be mistaken for hemorrhoids. Is there a particular symptomatic difference?
