I’ve had my first external hemorrhoid for about 3 days now, it started to get better to where it didn’t bother me as much. Once I was done using the restroom I wiped and found blood. Is it normal for external hemorrhoids to bleed? Its not bleeding a lot but little by little. Is this serious or normal for it to happen? and what can i do to help it?

Okay, so I’ve asked about a hemorrhoid before. And constipation recently. They just go hand-in-hand. But, ah… I’m asking about whether or not I have a prolapsed internal hemorrhoid or just an external one right now.

I’ve looked up pictures of prolapsed internal hemorhoids – which are… disturbing – as well as hemorrhoid diagrams. From what I see, a prolapsed internal hemorrhoid would literally come from the anus. Like something stuck up there pointing out. Apparently they can come out when you strain and, at a certain point, you can push them manually back in. This is why I’m asking.

Mine are… Well, I CAN push them back in/down usually after they puff/swell up when I strain due to my recent constipation, but my thing is that mine seem to be on the outer rim of my… Rectum? Like an external hemorrhoid would be. They swell when I strain, the swelling can be pushed back down with a couple of tries, but I can physically feel that it’s connected to my anus, unlike how – from what I understand – a prolapsed one would be.

Is this an external hemorrhoid, a prolapsed inner hemorrhoid, or just an internal hemorrhoid that I can feel that isn’t prolapsing – do you think?

I am using hemorrhoid cream. How many days will it take to cure or shrink my external hemorrhoid.

I have had an external hemorrhoid for 5 days now and want to know if it is safe to have sex. I am seeing a general sergeant in 3 days to have the hemorrhoid possibly removed. Only true medical advice welcome! Thank you!

When I have my bowel movement I do not poop blood but I can see blood in the toilet paper. It this external hemorrhoid or anal fissure.
