I’ve had it for almost a year now and I’m starting to get really annoyed by it. I never really had a problem until now but it itches like hell every second of the day, I have bloody bowel movements, but it doesn’t hurt much unless it’s touched. I’ve tried witch hazel and vaseline, different hemorrhoid creams, and every home remedy on the internet. Nothing works. I really don’t want to go to a doctor because I can’t stand the idea of having someone analyze my butt. All of the symtoms seem like a hemorrhoid but it looks like a swollen vein (which I understand is what hemorrhoid is) it’s doughnut shaped and stings when it’s touched and the rest of the sphinctor is hard, swollen, and has a purple-ish tint. I just don’t know if it’s a hemorrhoid because most pictures of hemorrhoids are like round pollyps.

I don’t know :/ should I suck it up and see a doctor or is there a treatment I haven’t tried?

( I’ve tried the Sitz bath, an assortment of creams, the witch hazel thing, eating more fiber, fruits, and water, and countless other things that fail to have an effect )

I have really not drank any water the last week and just the last two days im having trouble passing stools. I looked at my butt in a mirror to see if i had hemorrhoids but didnt see anything but when i pushed really hard it seems like part of my butt was coming out is that normal? Anyway’s i was digaonsed with super small pin head size hemorrhoids on the outside of my butt which are basically almost gone. If i had an internal hemorrhoid would i know? Like it feels like I have a brick in my butt i need to poo so bad. I can feel the pressure from it from i sit down but no pain or anything. My diet the last week is like 5 cans of pop at least a day greasy fast food, basically no water at all hot dogs, cheese and sausages. Could this be why I am not pooping?
i am 23

havnt been able to poop right for 2 days. no pain but feels full and butt is strained, is this from all the pushing?

I bought a teacup pomeranian about a month ago (I know that it was a bad decision on my part buying a teacup dog) however, ever since i’ve had him we had taken him to the vet about 7-8 times. The medical bills keep piling up because he’s not getting better. He had been treated for hypoglycemia and coccidiosis which one vet diagnosed him for, but now we’re giving him another medication for discomfort in his large intestines? Ever since I had my puppy (he was born on 3/16/08) he has been crying everytime he tries to poop, and sometimes it doesn’t even come out. We’ve been giving him this laxative for cats that the vet gave us, but he’s still not getting better and the doctors we’ve went to can’t seem to figure it out. His butthole is swollen, and he keeps tryin to poop every 20 mins, but only a small amount comes out. It’s not his anal glands, anal sacs, or anything like that. Please help me! I just want him to get better soon. His butt has been in discomfort for a whole month now!

Okay so i think i have a thrombosed hemorrhoid. I am 13, yes, i do research on all this stuff thats how i think it is one, but for any different opinions on what it could be….
There is like a "Bubble" type thing on my anus and it is purple black. It isn’t too big, but big enough i guess. It doesn’t hurt when i poop or just in general, though i do feel like i’m pushing a bit harder cause its in the way. I do have another plain hemorrhoid (skin flap) there too, but that doesnt hurt either…

Now. I really don’t want to tell my mom, its really awkward to talk to her about these things and if she asks how i know, i dont wanna be like "Cause i LOOKED THERE." but if i were to tell her and get it checked by a doctor, how would they do it? Do they literally like look into your butt? :/ i’m super embarassed and scared it might get worse.

I take warm baths every night and i sometimes put polysporin on it but i dont think that’s doing anything… please help…..
