Sorry for the nature of the photo, but I need to show to see what others dealing with hemorrhoids think. I've not been to my GP, but will if things don't improve within a week. I've developed what I believe is a hemorrhoid, some weeks after pilonidal sinus surgery (abscess at base of tailbone which required surgery to open up and drain, then 12 weeks of packing.) I'm 27 male.
Anyway, I think due to having a limited range in that area while I was healing and possible straining I've caused myself hemorrhoids, at least I'm hoping somebody here can look at my photo and say yes or no.
I have googled hemorrhoids and mine doesn't look like what I see it, it is flatter, almost scale like - doesn't hurt majorly just annoying being there when wiping and occasional dash of blood on paper when cleaning.
I started on the suppositories that go up the bum to see if they help, but if not improvement will see my GP.
Sorry for the nature of the photos, but if somebody could look and tell me what they think I would appreciate ...
One photo shows with cream on, the other without.
hi there ,
from experience and what i can see in that picture ,that looks like a skin tag from a surgery.
I do have a similar skin tag post my hemorriodectomy that continued to shrink daily .
would still recommend that you go check it out though.
Goodluck
i did wonder if it was this too! my surgery was much further up than this, so no clue how it devloped there. can they occur anywhere? and you think it will shrink? i guess its worth getting it checked hmm
if anybody else has input id be greatful
