Suggest Treatment For Persistent And Painful Hemorrhoids
Question: Hello. During a bowel movment I passed what looks like a fleshy ball. It's smaller than a pea and has finger like projections off of it. It's happened twice now and both times I found it on the toilet paper after wiping. I also have a hemorrhoid that protrudes out during bowel movments and somtimes causes a steak of bright blood on tissue paper as well. I am a 30 year old female and I'm currently 27 weeks pregnant. I have no serious medical history.
