Most painful hemorrhoid's

[Paulo1976]

Hi, I ma not sure if this is the correct group to post but cannot find an alternative one.

I am a 48 year old male, vegetarian and healthy diet. I exercise regularly and drink lots of water. I have recently started to take fibre supplements as I dont think I get enough.

For the last two months, I have suffered the most terrible pain in my backside. I believe it to be a haemorrhoid as I can feel it.

It hurts all the time. The pain is almost unbearable.

I know people can have these for years.

I have tried all over the counter creams, anusol, germaloids, suppositries and nothing has worked.

Can anyone recommend anything else? I have seen some adverts online which has caught my attention but I am dubious.

Appreciate any help

Paul

sorry to hear that you are going through this.

I have had haemorrhoids for years. Although they are painful for a while after a BM, the pain passes. I find sitting on a flat ice pack helpful. Sometimes a couple of paracetamol if needed .

A few years ago I went to the GP who referred me to a consultant. He recommended surgery, but I decided against it. I had another consultation over a year ago and that consultant told me I had a small mucosal prolapse from the rectum. Surgery recommended again and I again decided against.

I would recommend that you go to your GP for an examination, if you can, to find out exactly what is going on with your rear end. I have heard of fissures and it could be this.
