Hello doctor,
I am getting hemorrhoids often. Even this month, I got hemorrhoids twice. I would like to know, why is it so often for me? I do eat fruits every day, and I do not have constipation. I am 20 years old, and my weight is 59 kg. Thank you.

Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Sorry to hear your problem. The first thing is that I need to know a few more details about your problem.
- Are you getting hemorrhoids or something else? Because bleeding while passing stools are not due to hemorrhoids alone.
- And suppose, if you got hemorrhoids, then it will not disappear without any medication.
- Do you have pain while passing stools? If it is so, then probably you have got fissure-in-ano, which is an ulcer in the anal canal.
- It will appear again and again without proper treatment. People often confuse it with hemorrhoids.
- It is due to constipation (passing hard stools and less frequent stools). You may also get it after having a very spice diet, trauma and stress.
- You need to get a surgeon's appointment and opinion. He will examine your anal canal and will give you a proper picture.
The Probable causes:
Spicy food and stress.
Investigations to be done:Anal examination by a general surgeon.
Probable diagnosis:Fissure-in-ano.
Treatment plan:1. Sitz bath.
2. Laxatives.
