Could The Hemmeroid Be Pressing Causing Gastro ?
Question: Hi, I've been having various symptoms lately, a gasto situation with lower left stomach pain, warm pulling pain in lower left, as well as a large internal grade 3 prolapsing hemmeroid (only comes out during bowl movement).
My question to you is, what explains this:
All day I have a constant pressure, fullness and pressing sensation in my anus and pressing on my prostate and bladder. It makes me feel like I need to urinate all the time, even just after I've already been.
The thing is, I've taken multiple urine and blood tests, And no sign of a UTI or infection or anything, no blood in the urine.
The sensation is also really strange when I masturbate, I feel very strange for hours after down there, like a tingling, pulsing feeling around the head of the penis and around the prostate. This never happened before the hemmeroid,
Could the hemmeroid be pressing and causing that?
What other conditions or tests shold I take?

Forgot to say here are my blood/urine results:
Results from blood and urine test
Urine
AMYLASE (25-125 U/L):
Your Result: 61 U/L
Interpretation: Within the normal range. Amylase is an enzyme that helps digest carbohydrates. It's produced in the pancreas and the salivary glands. Elevated levels might indicate a problem with the pancreas, such as pancreatitis.
CREATINE KINASE (CK) (40-320 U/L):
Your Result: 58 U/L
Interpretation: Within the normal range. CK is an enzyme found in the heart, brain, and skeletal muscle. High levels can indicate muscle damage.
C-REACTIVE PROTEIN (CRP) (0-5 mg/l):
Your Result: <1 mg/l
Interpretation: Within the normal range. CRP is a marker of inflammation in the body.
LIVER FUNCTION TEST:
Total Protein (60-80 g/l): 70 g/l - Normal
Albumin (35-50 g/L): 43 g/L - Normal
Total Bilirubin (2-21 umol/L): 6 umol/L - Normal
ALP (20-150 u/l): 65 u/l - Normal
Globulin (20-35 g/L): 27 g/L - Normal
ALT (5-40 u/l): 20 u/l - Normal
Interpretation: All liver function markers are within the normal range.
UREA, CREATININE, AND ELECTROLYTES:
Sodium (133-146 mmol/L): 140 mmol/L - Normal
Potassium (3.5-5.3 mmol/L): 3.4 mmol/L - Slightly below the normal range. Low potassium can be due to various reasons, including certain medications, kidney issues, or inadequate dietary intake.
Chloride (95-108 mmol/l): 104 mmol/l - Normal
Urea (2.5-7.8 mmol/L): 4.8 mmol/L - Normal
Creatinine (64-111 umol/L): 83 umol/L - Normal
eGFR (>60 mL/Min): >90 mL/Min - Normal. eGFR is an estimate of the filtering capacity of the kidneys. A value above 60 mL/min is considered normal.
Overall Interpretation: Most of your results are within the normal range. The only value slightly outside the reference range is potassium, which is a bit low.
Blood Count
Haemoglobin (130-170 g/L):
Your Result: 152 g/L
Interpretation: Within the normal range. Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen.
White Cell Count (4-10 x10^9/L):
Your Result: 5.8 x10^9/L
Interpretation: Within the normal range. White blood cells are part of the immune system and help fight infections.
Platelets (150-410 x10^9/L):
Your Result: 156 x10^9/L
Interpretation: Within the normal range. Platelets help with blood clotting.
RBC (Red Blood Cell Count) (4.5-5.5 x10^12/L):
Your Result: 5.1 x10^12/L
Interpretation: Within the normal range. Red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body.
HCT (Hematocrit) (0.4-0.5 L/L):
Your Result: 0.43 L/L
Interpretation: Within the normal range. Hematocrit measures the proportion of blood that is made up of red blood cells.
MCV (Mean Corpuscular Volume) (83-101 fL):
Your Result: 84 fL
Interpretation: Within the normal range. MCV measures the average size of red blood cells.
MCH (Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin) (27-32 Pg):
Your Result: 29.7 Pg
Interpretation: Within the normal range. MCH measures the average amount of hemoglobin in a red blood cell.
MCHC (Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration) (315-345 g/L):
Your Result: 355 g/L
Interpretation: Slightly above the normal range. MCHC measures the concentration of hemoglobin in a given volume of red cells.
RDW (Red Cell Distribution Width) (11.6-14 %CV):
Your Result: 12.9 %CV
Interpretation: Within the normal range. RDW measures the variation in red blood cell size.
Differential White Cell Count:
Neutrophils (2-7 x10^9/L): 3.4 x10^9/L - Normal
Lymphocytes (1-3 x10^9/L): 1.7 x10^9/L - Normal
Monocytes (0.02-0.5 x10^9/L): 0.1 x10^9/L - Normal
Eosinophils (0-0.1 x10^9/L): 0.0 x10^9/L - Normal
Basophils: Not provided
Absolute NRBC (Nucleated Red Blood Cells) (0-0.3 x10^9/L): 0.0 x10^9/L - Normal

Brief Answer:
Get semen examination and culture of Urethral discharge done .
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for your query
Based on the facts that you have posted the discomfort and pain in lower abdomen and around perineum with urge to urinate can be due to Chronic Prostatitis .
It is very common in Chronic Prostatitis to get all test results to be normal .
Get routine Semen examination and culture done to rule out Chronic Prostatitis
.Microscopic examination of a Urethral Discharge collected after Digital Rectal Examination does help to detect Chronic Infection of Prostate
The presence of Haemorrhoids may be adding factor to your symptoms.
Thanks and Regards

Hi, where would I get such a test done?
Is there any other advice you can give, for example should I do pelvic kegel exercises? Keep walking every day?
Have hot baths? I don't know what is going to make it worse or better
