external hemorrhoids bleeding
External hemorrhoid follow up ?
I have had an external hemmie for two weeks. I have done everything that is recommended. I regularly exercise, added more fiber, taken baths and sitz baths, tried the topical ointment (which doesn’t work). It is sort of asymptomatic – doesn’t bleed, isn’t overly painful, the thing isn’t huge either – about the size of quarter of a grape. Only thing that does bother it a bit is when I sit for a long time. Last time I had one 5 years ago I think it took a good month to go away. Should I see a doctor about this? The stuff I have read on line indicates they will likely tell me to keep doing what I am doing and it will go away eventually. I have read where people have these for weeks and weeks. Any similar experiences out there?
Hemorrhoids develop due to something else going on in your body or in your lifestyle. Since it is re-appearing it is important to find out what is the cause of your hemorrhoid and treat it. In the case you cannot treat/remove the cause, you’ll just have to accept that from time to time the hemorrhoid will develop. So, having a good treatment “handy” is the best you can do. Additional, a healthy diet base on 80% alkaline forming foods and 20% acid forming foods can contribute to overall better health.
