Internal haemorrhoids or?

Hi Katie. Below is my story: as far as your question about mucus. I read on my outpatient sheet that having mucus is a common occurrence. I would not be concerned.

hi katie. How are you doing? I had three internal hemorrhoids removed this Monday, March 9, 2022 . I was doing fairly well and starting to get fiber back into my diet and try to walk around the house and such. I felt the urge to want to have a BM because my bottom was just I don’t know something was laying on it. I made the mistake of calling the doctor on call at the ER around 8 PM on Wednesday evening. Unfortunately, I got an old school doctor and he told me to take milk of magnesia. Do not take that. I’ve had diarrhea ever since and I afraid I might be developing an anal fissure. I’ve lost my appetite and have had diarrhea at 9 AM this morning. i’m going to try introducing a little bit of fiber into my diet again tomorrow and hopefully can get back to normal. This is a long haul. I am trying to drink a lot of water. They did put me on tramadol, a muscle relaxer, and Tylenol and ibuprofen. How about you? Since this is day five of my procedure, I’m trying to cut back on tramadol and just try to see if I can get through with the Tylenol and ibuprofen. I don’t believe you’re supposed to take more than 4000 MGS of Tylenol and 3200 of ibuprofen.

Company loves misery. I would love to have updates from you and I will do the same if you’re willing. This is not a fun journey. I have heard after two weeks, maybe three, we will be a new person.

Hi Katie. I'm no expert but I think the mucus is fairly typical of internal haemorrhoids. I'm certainly getting the same problem. I think it's because the mucus glands are in the same location as the blood vessels that become swollen and start bleeding. Good luck.

i have had mucus in the past too and i suffer with internal hems.

is the mucus white?
