Hello everyone -
Was reading around for some information and wanted to see other's experience.
I'm 30 and have had rare what I think hemorrhoid issues in the past, maybe once every year or two where there would be a little pain with a BM and maybe trace blood on the TP.
So I had some GI issues returning from a trip this weekend and started to get that pain and itching and a small pea sized lesion which I think is an external H. It was more annoying than anything, but then this morning after a normal sized, soft BM there was a larger streak of bright red blood on the paper. None in the toilet. Haven't had another BM, but I have been dabbing with prep-H wipes, and using prep-h as well as took a bath today, and there is still small amount of blood that seems to be there each time I dab or leave a wipe there in case it bleeds. Not much, about the size of a quarter.
Nothing that I think I need to go to the doctor this moment about, but I wanted to see if others had experience in the past with a worse bout of Hroids when they previously haven't been that bad.
It is just making me anxious and embarrassed to spend time with my SO as well as wanting to not check every hour during the day to see if it is still spotting.
Thanks in advance
