Is there any home remedy for hemorrhoids which interrupts sitting with occasional bleed?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Did you attach any video? Here only pictures are available (attachment removed to protect patient identity). Do you feel difficulty in passing stools? Any blood after stools? Does the area of lump itches or always seems to be wet? It does not seem to be like a typical external hemorrhoid. It needs a physical examination to confirm the diagnosis. Actually these are a collection of engorged small blood vessels and nearby soft tissue which occurs due to the pooling of blood due to prolonged constipation, straining, etc. Hemorrhoids can be avoided by encouraging more oral fluids, avoiding constipation, straining exercises especially abdomen, fiber-rich diet, etc. You most probably need to visit a general surgeon. Also, you might just need a minor surgical procedure. You no need to get worried. You can get discharged in two to three days from the hospital. I believe home remedies would not be helpful at this stage. Thank you and take care. Regards.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I have seen the video (attachment removed to protect patient identity). Yes, I can see the difference in color. You need to be a bit concerned regarding the color change and also the increase in foul smell. If it is external hemorrhoid, it could have been due to thrombosis of engorged veins (ischemic color change) and the foul smell might be due to an underlying infection. If you have started to feel much pain since the color change, it would be better to get evaluated and treated accordingly as soon as possible. No difficulty in passing stools, but discomfort on sitting, burning sensation after stools, itching, and wetness favors a diagnosis towards external hemorrhoid or a perianal soft tissue cyst with infection or even other rare diagnosis. If the mass is fleshy, it can be hemorrhoid. If the mass is fluctuant or boggy, it could be a cyst. It needs a doctor's physical access and evaluation to confirm any diagnosis as I said earlier. Please visit any recognized hospital in your local area. Ask for a consultation with a general surgeon. The surgery mostly would be minor either excision under local anesthesia or if its an infectious mass incision and drainage under GA (general anesthesia) might be required. The cost of surgery differs with hospitals. I hope this helps. Thank you and take care.
