Have I got an internal hemeroid?

Posted , 5 users are following.

39 male 5'8" 157lb. For a good long while now I have noticed bright red blood on the toilet paper after having a bowl movement. I have what looks to be a skin tag so I assumed it was that. Also after I had a bowl movement I had a weird feeling for 10 or so minutes after. It felt like something was still near my anus and then I would feel like a suction feeling and what ever was there would feel as if it's gone back inside. I thought nothing of it until I decided to take a look last week after a bowel movement and I was shocked to see a mass like purple sack right on the side of my anus. I would say it's pretty big around an inch. I waited a few mins and looked again and it either shrunk or went back inside my anus opening. I have no pain it just feels weird and liked gross. I'm scared it's going to burst. It's also putting me off going to the toilet. Any advice? Thanks.

    It won't burst mate and you can probably treat it with over the counter medicines

      That's good to hear I have visions of it bursting! I have bought some Preparation H & I am looking into my diet. I think I have been straining too much on the toilet.
