One sitz bath will definitely be enough, by the way!

ok it shows u bleed during bm. I m sorry hear that u r in trouble n suffering. dear its still unclear that either u have hemorrhoid or fissure it's because in your case symptoms r quite mixed up since it initial stage. in later stages the two can be easily distinguished symptomatically. so some how manage to c a Dr. he will have a look n tell u the exact situation. meanwhile as I told earlier correct ur diet n more liquid intake. take miralax to soften ur bm. don't strain.n take sitz bath right after bm n also when u r in pain it will give u relief. take care

Good news (or at least I think it is), It barely hurts anymore. I have been looking online and it seems like its more of a hemorrhoid if anything. I no longer hurt when I walk or sit.

That's lucky.
I suggest squatting instead of sitting on the toilet. Since I switched, I don't have to strain whatsoever and it immensely reduced the amount of blood when I was still bleeding (have been blood and pain-free for a few weeks now). I bought a squatty potty, but you can probably use anything that will make you the right height.
