Hi, i’m only 22 and have been suffering from hemorrhoid for months. i’ve seen a doctor earlier on and the medicine prescribed to me (daflon and some ointment) stopped my bleeding…but the pain didnt seem to go fully (it only hurts when i passed my bowels) and i discovered a small lump on the outside, around the skin of my anus. i believe it’s an external hemorrhoid and it shouldnt be that serious as i don’t feel the pain at all unless the time when i go to the toilet and do my business. but i wanted to stop this pain so i went to get preparation H yesterday, it had this slight sharp pain when i applied it, is this normal? does it mean that its working and trying to sooth the wound? for how long will i have to apply this medication? i know hemorrhoid doesnt go away but does preparation H helps to shrink the lump and fully get rid of the pain? anyone help….thanks!
oh and has anyone been using preparation H and it works for them? thanks.

i been having this change in Bowels all the time sometimes i have bad stomach aches and my bowels are always like diarrhoea and sometimes they are normal bowels then i always have constipation due to my irregular eating habits and always have lower backpains.i am quite worried it might be colon cancer as i have read the symptoms can someone enlighten me what this might be thks.

i usually only open my bowels once a fortnight.i have started taking 2 laxatives on a friday night so that on saturday afternoon i can have a poo.will taking laxatives increase my risk of bowel cancer?

Twice within a week he discovered blood in his stool and was later diagnosed of first stage hemorrhoids. After about a year, a specialist Doctor treated him. Prior to the treatment, he has been having constipation but now has become worst with a lot of flatulence and also a mild, thin shock by the left side of the abdomen when cleaning up after visiting the restroom. We advised him to be drinking water first thing in the morning, eat a lot of fruits and fiber which he has been doing but no respite. He has now resorted to using a Colema Board kit to move his bowels. Any way out?

I am suffering from bleeding hemorrhoids for sometimes. It is external and everyday i watch fresh blood oozing out from my rectum at the time of passing bowels. Initially I ignored it and thought it’ll get healed instantaneously but now I hve become anemic.

1. Should I go for a surgery or surgery will not cure the problem? .
2. Should I go for non-surgical treatment for it?
3. If i go for surgery, how long will it take before i’ll b able 2 resume my normal life?
4. Is there any guarantee that surgery will completely cure this? What will happen if I still notice blood on my stool?
5. How will I b able to pass bowel for few days after surgery?
6. Is masturbation harmful for hemorrhoids?
