Constipation, Protrusion From Anus. Internal Hemorrhoids In Colonoscopy. Help?
I am a healthy 58 year-old woman who had a protrusion from my anus when I had a somewhat hard bowel movement. There is no bleeding present when I go to the bathroom. When I had a colonscopy done in 2008, there were internal hemorrids. Some days having a bowel movement is easier than others. I am quite regular with no bouts of constipation or diarrhea. I don't have pain or bleeding at any time although there does appear to be some loose skin that hangs down around my bottom. Any thoughts?

Dear customer,
It may be due to the haemorroids or the rectal prolapse and you should have the physical examination done by the surgeon or doctor to know the underlying etiology for that.
It is the possibility that the surgery is required in your case if the symptoms are severe enough to effect your day today activities.
thank you
