Internal hemmorhoids ?

Posted , 7 users are following.

So - been to the GP today as had fresh blood from backside now for about 3 days with no pain.

She had a good feel around (much to my dismay!) she said no fissures but that I could 'possibly' have an internal hemmorhoid as she felt something 'squishy' but to be honest... She didn't sound very confident!

She's given me some hydrocortisone suppositories (lovely) and said she hopes the problem will disappear as quickly as it came about.

Other than the fresh blood I have no problems whatsoever and no other symptoms.

Sound familiar to anybody here?

Also, she mentioned a camera up the bum if it doesn't resolve or gets worse. Help me god!!!

    Hi dee71386. I think that is just normal as it bleeds bcoz of the seizure. I had bleeding too just days ago. At first, i did not notice. And thought it was just my poo. But then the next time i had BM, there is drip again after. So i look at it in the light, and saw that it was not a wet poo but blood. But it does not hurt.

    I got scared and googled what it could be and what i could do. And i found out about hemorrhoids and anal seizures and colon cancer.

    I was reallly scared and disappointed bcoz i dont drink nor smoke. i just started working and i thought, all my pays would only get to operations and medicines. Or worse could not continue working anymore.

    But thank God for this forum, i learned i am not alone in this situation. And it is not a rare case. And could not be really serious.

    I did not resort to check up or doctor at once. Bcoz i have read one comment that it would go away in few days. Only needed to eat more fiber and water.

    I did that. No meat in my food list. Water therapy. Do not force too much in BM. And after two days no more blood after poo.

    I am relieved. Thank God. Just pray and dont think too much about it.
