hi, i have an external hemorrhoid and iv had it for around 2 years (at least). i heard they do a treatment where they put a band around an internal one and it falls off..something like that anyway.
is it dangerous to put a tiny rubber band around it myself and see if it works?
im not in pain or anything. just having it there is driving me insane

Okay, I think I have a hemroid that just appeared 2weeks ago.. I wanted to know if Vitamin E Oil will help rid them? And can someone please explain the rubber band method in detail? Please and thank you.

I have a borderline internal/external hemorrhoid, and it is driving me crazy.

It’s because I’m 30wks pregnant, and haven’t been able to be very active throughout my pregnancy. My diet is pretty good (not constipated or diarrhoea, regular) and I am getting more exercise – but it isn’t helping my immediate situation.

It seems to be too large to expect to go away on its own, or to reshape back to normal, but it keeps getting irritated and expanding, every time I think it is improving.

I don’t want to take it to the doc, but I am worrying that nipping it off with a rubber band might be the only option for one as big and stubborn as this.

I’ve had it 2 weeks and it is driving me spare.

Help what do I do!

A few year back I had two hemorrhoids removed using what they called the rubber band method. I now have two pieces of skin that hang from my anus. Does anyone know if this can be removed and if so what type of doctor should I consult? I just don’t want to go to anyone because I find this embarrassing. Thanks for your help!

I had the procedure done a week ago. I was in some discomfort for a couple of days. However, now I havn’t seen it fall off, I don’t feel any pain there or discomfort. Is it possible the rubber band broke or fell off? I can still feel the roid slightly and it itches but not as bad as it used to. SHould I just be more patient or could there be something wrong? Thanks
