Piles

[Ka2012]

Since giving birth 3 years ago have always had on off relationship with piles.
However this time I have a painful external one that is constantly bleeding. It's now day two and starting to worry as not had this kind of bleeding before. ( usually it just happened in toilet.)

Thank you for  the advice! A couple of days later I came down with a high temperature  and double the pain now on antibiotics. Go back Thursday for revaluation so far pain has eased but still very much present! Doctor was talking about a plan to get treatment to stop them for good.
I hope so the pain has been extreme!!!!! So much so it made me sick and totally off my food! No desire to eat still?

Hi,
How are you?Are there other symptoms present?  If the bleeding does not stop, you may need to have this checked by your doctor for proper evaluation and to rule out differentials such as infection, diverticulitis or fistula.Additional tests such as blood test and imaging studies may also be done. Hot sitz bath and topical creams may also help provide relief. Increased oral fluid intake and high fiber diet are highly recommended. Take care and do keep us posted.
