Hemorrhoids! HELP! I am in some SERIOUS pain so please, anyone! HELP!?
April 1, 2012 by Hemorrhoids Miracle
Okay, so I’ve been sick for the past four days. I’d come down with a fever+stomach flu. And because of the stomach flu, I’ve been taking many trips to the bathroom.
The result of that is a hard, nickel-sized bump on my ass, right below the anus. It’s painful to touch. It hurts to sit, lie down, and even walk. I’ve been missing work and school because of the pain. I’ve had it for about three out of those four days. I still have diarrhea every now and then, but not as often as when I had the flu. At first, I thought it was a hemorrhoid because of what I’ve read online. So yesterday, I had my boyfriend go and buy me some Prevention H wipes and ointment. Neither helped. Well, the wipes did because when I wipe, it isn’t so irritated. But the ointment didn’t relieve me or make it any easier to sit or walk around. I’ve also been taking some warm-hot showers as well and the swelling hasn’t gone down or anything.
Some of my questions include:
Is it REALLY a hemorrhoid? Because those treatments should’ve worked, right?
Can I pop it without going to the clinic?
Is there any medications to relieve the pain and make it just a little bit easier to walk?
Any suggestions to make the swelling go down?
If there’s pus around it, would a doctor have to surgically remove it?
How long will it take to heal should it be surgically removed? How much more school/work might I have to miss?
It seriously is painful and it sucks not being able to walk around normally or sit down without flinching. There’s so much pressure on it when I try to stand up or sit down slowly. It feels like it’s gonna burst. Just throwing that out there, in case it matters.
But please, anyone who has ANY experience with this, I’d greatly appreciate it if you could help me out and give me a little advice. I’ve never had anything like this at all, so I’m freaking out over here. Thanks in advance!
