Question about passing blood...

Posted , 3 users are following.

I have been posting a lot about my hemorrhoids lately. I usually do not pass blood. A drop or two here & there, but always bright red and not a lot. Still, I always get upset when I see it. I was wondering about others stories? How much, when do you get worried? How do you know its hemorrhoids? I do eat a lot of that pre-packaged popcorn. 2-3 bags a day and my mom wonders if that could be my problem?

    Sounds like you have a possible thrombosed hemmroid sometimes they will pop and bleed little or lots or possible internal hemmroids only a specialist can tell you for sure lay off the popcorn and see if it makes a difference! I SUFFERED FOR YEARS SILENTLEY DONT BE ME!

      Thank you Valerie38106.

      Even though I was never examined, I was told I had a prolapsed rectum. I have an autoimmune disease and am slow heal. Looks like a baseball coming out of me.I am facing a surgery first of April and cant have anything done until after I heal from that.

      I just do not know if its a prolapsed rectum or all hems. I am hoping its all hems.
