hello,
i'm a 27 year old fit female. 5'4 125ibs. About 6 months ago I got a anal fissure and i've had them before and it usually goes away in about a week or two. I developed a hemmoriod around the same time and it started going away like normal (had a couple in the past started about 4 years ago and only had a couple, didn't happen very often). This time it's been an ongoing thing. The hemmoroid issue became more of a problem this time around. It came back after a couple weeks once the fissure started and it was ok for about a week or two but it's never fully gone away. I can be fine for a couple weeks and one bowel movement change makes it come back again. Even though it may not hurt when I go most of the time, it still always looks swollen and still has a purplish like color with a smallish lump right on the inside of the anus. It's been starting to hurt again almost a week ago, feels like another fissure. Most of the time it doesn't hurt but there isn't 2-3 weeks that go by that I actually feel normal. I can usually go normally but one harder stool makes everything come back and I start to feel uncomportable again. I had a doctor check it out about 3 months ago and he felt a lump on the inside and it said it feels like a hemmoriod and looks like similar symptoms around the anus but if it doesnt get better to come back. I always think it's going away and then symptoms come back. I made another apt but they couldn't fit me in for like a month from now. I just wanted to talk about becaue I feel like this is taking over my life. I do everything I can to take care of myself and I ear extremely healthy for my age. There is pretty much nothing I haven't done. I have been on top of doing everything ; sitz bath as much as I can, prep h, tucks wipes, drinking lots of water, using a fiber supplement everyday with a glass of water, taking ducolax once a day(the stool softner), using hem-b-gone off the internet and hem-tab also off the internet. I haeven't seen any blood (knock on wood). I excerise all the time . I'm going crazy and i can't deal with this anymore. PLEASE HELP ME. Thank you so much for you time.
