There is a lump around my anus and it doesn't pain at all but I feel it's coming out when I strain and it goes back when I get relaxed...
Is it hemorrhoids or something more than that, the lump does not pains at all but I feel it is coming outside from anus when I strain in toilet..pls let me know what is it?
I am 20 yrs old..stool is so hard and have to pull it from hand.
Did it start to bleed ?
To me it is completely okay. Please do not do anything to it like pull it or scratch it too hard, you may be in the right forum. Yours may be an internal hemorrhoid that started to prolapse. I am not a dr so I cant make a diagnosis.
My mum also told me she went to dr because finding a lump when she was straining, and turn out to be a hemorrhoid, but really was an initial phase. Mine was also like that at the first time, but I ignored it and did not change my lifestyle, it turned to be a horrible nightmare.
I think if it does not hurt at all, or bleed, everything gonna be okay, but you can also meet GP just to make yourself to be more relieved.
Obviously I can only give you advice from my personal experience. Have you used stool softners? They are not very expensive - avaialable at CVS, Walgreens etc - if you are in the US. 1-3 every day. I have only been taking them regulary for a month - after a heamorrhoid op and they are definately helping me. I really think (my personal opinion) that you don't want to strain anymore than you have to - it may make things worse. You may also find that if you use preparation H suppositries every day, it will sooth things and ease stool out when you go tot he bathroom. If you can't get those - use a glove, put some vaseline on your finger and insert a little around the aea and see if that helps.
Thanks for your concern..
It didn't bleed but when I went to have bowel movement before 2 days there was a sharp pain like glass rupturing my anus and I noticed 2 drops of blood while Washing it..but today I have constipated too much bowel movements are not happening smoothly.
In addition to my last message try taking Psyllium - a natural laxative. make sure you drink it with lots of water, make it quick with cold water and drink it before it gets think. it gets thick really quickly. You must have lots of water. Also make sure you are drinking a lot of water every day - I'm on about 4 liters a day - start early and drink all day. This may help your stoool be looser.
I am using laxative but that's not helping me, I am very much depressed have to pull my stools by straining too much and even by hands.
Thats sounds hemorrhoid to me. Maybe internal or external that has been prolapsed.
First you have to solve your constipation. Try a banana juice 2 or 3 times a day like mine, you can juice it. It can make your stool softer.
Then, you can buy H ointment cream and apply it 2 or 3 times everyday (inside) your anus. If it is too hard you can buy the suppository one until the symptoms fade out.
I started eating lots of fruits vegetables and fibre there was a good development but yesterday my anus got ruptured by fissure and today the stools are too hard and now I am waiting for BM but it is too hard and I think it got struck in the rectum.
By the way u experienced any sharp pain like fissure while having bowel movement?
Does hemorrhoids causes anal fissure?
Can you see a doctor? I'm not sure where you are.
I know it's hard not to get depressed but that's the reason I got on here, I didn't think i could go on anymore with the pain, it's easier to know you are not the only person in the world with these problems and we can help each other. I researched a lot of foods.
Things to eat to help stop constipation - berries, Apples, Figs, Prunes, Coconut water, Melon, Oats, Beetroot, Aloe Vera, Leafy green vegetables. google everything you can, water water water. Probiotic foods, pears, brocolli, ginger.
Foods NOT to eat - meat, cheese, ice cream, potato chips, chocolate, frozen dinners, dairy,
See if any of these things can help. try to change as many of these things as you can.
Bananas seem to be confusing - it seems green bananas (my favourite) are not good but ripe ones will help - I won't chance it. some people say coffee helps others say it causes constipation.
I ate all the fruits that you recommended above but no development..the problem is when I go to have BM only the starting stool will be hard and dry and then it will be okay.
I've been very supprised to find out that some people only have a BM once or twice a week. So don't panic if you're not going every day. I am 6 weeks post op and found that I have to keep a diary with making sure I am keeping up with stool softners, laxatives (I started with Miralax but have slowly switched over to Natural Psyllium - made by KONSYL - Metamucil is similar but metamucil has aspartame in whch is bad for you) I started with full dose of miralax. Now when I was bad the Doc gave me a percription for GoLytely - do not leave your house - and make sure you have quick access to a bathroom if you get this . I mean it! it softens the stool and it will come out in a rush but you really have little to no notice. People use this before an op to clean themselves out - it's not soemthing you can use every day.
Another option may be speak to a good Colonic doctor - you can look up what happens on Youtube. Please know I am just telling you personal things I have tried and if you can get to a decent doctor you should.
Welll done if you have changed your diet - I cross checked lots of websites and made list which are hanging in my kitchen. It amy take a while for your body to get used to it but a little of everything thing will help until you find out wat works for you.
Try to put in a Preparation H (or similar) suppository a few hours before - if you normally have a BM in the morning (Like me) then I put one the night before. For a while the vaseline worked. it just made it a lot easier to get thinsg started.
I also used Fleet suppositres for a while - which again are like a laxative and you're not sure when they are going to react and when they do it gets things moving fast. So again - don't go too far from a bathroom.
At least with Preparation H they are soothing and not a laxative.
Once you get somethign that works remember to try and keep to that kind of schedule. The water drinking is alot for me but it's helping so much.
Then I do use a Sitz bath at least twice a day to sooth the whole area.
Thank you and have you suffered from hemorrhoids?
If you, pls tell me how to face them and prevent them?
Are hemorrhoids are permanent? They can be cured or not?
I have suffered from them on and off for years and you can read all different sort of stories on this website. It seems we are all diffferent. I've ad them before and then they have gone and I've been ok for years and then suddenly straining and being constpated caused me issues which made them come back.
I just had an operation 6 weeks ago to remove a haemmoids and 'fix' an anal fissure - I had complications and would not wish it on anyone - I ended up in the ER and then in hospital for 9 days and had to have 3 blood transfusions - I seem to be one fo the unlucky ones but other people on this site say it was life changing for them in a good way.
I think we have to make sure once we change our diets or lifestyles, we stick to it,
I think you said you were pretty young and i bet if you can get over this hurdle and keep on top of things you will be fine. a good diet, lots of water Read all the info on these pages here - lots of people have great info and advice. Don't think you are alone. I had to tell my bosses who are men younger than me (I'm female) it was embarrassing but i"m over it now - we need to talk about it and share info. Pooping is natural - we all have to do it - every one in the world.
I left everything to God..right now tears are coming out! Thinking it's better to die rather than suffering from this issue.
I thought to consult doctor tomorrow, will let you know what happens. Atleast I have to be okay for another 10-20 yrs bcoz to take care of my parents and to keep them happy..
God...Save me pls😢
Obviously. You can read stories here. Hemorrhoid is mainly very related to pain, burn, and itch. Also hemorrhoid may not causing anal fissure, but the bleed itself comes from the H. Anal fissurr usually happen due the constipation itself.
Please see a doctor if you can. You don't need to worry as much - we just need to work out how to get your body balanced so what goes in comes out at regualary. If you can sit in a warm water bath or bowl with warm watre in - it will help sooth - look up Sitz bath - I sit for a while and then fill up with a jug of warm water again. You will be ok. You will. And of course your parents need you and YOU need to be here. Life is precious and you deserve a good life. If you tr as many of the things we have discussed and other peopel have suggested you will probably find n not too long that things will get easier.
I know days can be really bad - there were days I wanted to give up but every day I get a little better. I have a better life than many many people who suffer from worse than this and I will take it one day at a time. Please message me anytime. I will check back and respond as soon as I can. Relax and take care, love from your friend.
Thank you my Friend..
Can I get back to my past life?? Is this is a temporary problem or permanent?
I never drink alcohol,smoke and I never thought this disease would attack me never ever thought,
I am waiting for one chance..If I get it than I will change my whole life style.
As I am 20yrs old this made me very depressed and I heard hemorrhoids won't go without surgery and they always return and they stay permanently.
I had them before and they went . My problem is that I travel a lot for work and so I tend to make myself costipated because I hold myself instead of going to the toilet on a plane. You sound very healthy, I don't smoke or drink either. I'm sure in just a couple of weeks things will be better for you and you will feel so much better. You are changing your life, check your foods, maybe avoid the ones that can cause constipation. I have added psyllium to my diet every day - it's hard to drink at first coz it gets thick quickly - you MUST drink lots of water with it but it will keep you regular.
If you had spoken to me 4 weeks ago I was at my wits end - I wanted to collapse into a corner and never come out. I had to have my friend here to help me - I didn't even want to share my problem and then I had to have someone by my bathroom door as i was scared to go to the toilet. Don't force anything. My friend told me to make sure I was beathing as she heard me holding my breath when I was in the bathroom. Relax - take deep breaths. take stool softeners every day (even once everythign seemsnormal I am going to take them every day) - I believe it will go and because you are going to take care of your self this will all be in your past. I know it's scarey but it doesn't sound to me like you have it really bad. You should be able to go on and have a normal life and be comfortable. Hemorrhoids go all the time without surgery - and I'm in my 50's and they have never stayed permanently, I can go for years without them. Think positive - some of the things you have heard are not true. Surgery is a last resort - millions of people deal with this and cure the issue without surgery. And you are so young - things heal easier. Mostly mine used to go within in a week to 10 days. and if you can get your stool softer the issue will probaly never come back.
