i am 21 and going through my first case of hemorrhoids. i am totally confused from all my internet research mostly because of all the things they say causes a hemorrhoid, i havent done or had any of them….i.e. no heavy lifting, pregnancy, no constipation etc. i am really bummed about this because for me it is really painful! it started hurting the most on sunday so this morning (monday) i did a saltz bath twice. then i worked from 3 in the afternoon until 11 and im not kidding, but by the end of the night….starting around 8 i was waddling around my work because it was so awful. i did one more saltz bath when i got home and took a vicodin for the pain so i feel okay now….but im worried about work tomorrow because i will be at work for 8 and a half hours! i obviously cant do a saltz bath so id like to know 1) what i can do for the pain
2) how long will this horrid pain last
3) is this really normal? cause according to my reading, everybody has this…it just doesnt seem right

I was wondering if anyone might know anything about how to treat this.
My dad came down with C. diff after being in the hospital for renal problems.
We thought his diarrhea was as a side effect to renvela a phosphate binder given for his dialysis treatment, but it he began feeling very lousy , brought him to the hospital, and found out it was C. diff.

He has been in the hospital for about 2 weeks, and his diarrhea has not gone. He was given vancomycin and today they changed the antibiotic. The color of his stool looks more normal.
He has developed hemorrhoids and cuts in his buttcheeks from the stools, as he has not been able to move to go to the bathroom and ended up going in the bed a lot.

I know about probiotics and I’ve been given him probiotic pills to him.

Anyone have any ideas about this? Also any ideas about the hemorrhoid and skin problems? (this bothers him a lot)

Thanks . Any ideas are appreciated greatly

I got a hemorrhoid the other day and it has been painful however yesterday night after I had a bowel movement I noticed my pants were bleeding. Not paying it much attention I covered it thinking it would go away however it continued to bleed slowly but enough throughout the day. I went to the doctor today and he gave me cream and wants me to see a specialist. I am concerned about the amount of blood loss. It is not a real lot but it is still bleeding enough to cover a tissue. What should I do?

i had my hemorrhoid rubber band ligation 3 days ago. im a healthy teenager, Doctors told me to take it easy after the procedure but i feel good, better without the hemorrhoid, i was wondering if i could continue activites such as basketball, running ..etc..if not now, any time soon?

Would hydrocortisone cream make my hemorrhoid go away? and what are the methods to get rid of prolapsed hemorrhoid?
