Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I have read your description and understand your concern.
Rectal bleeding could be due to presence of haemorrhoids or anal fissures, which would get aggravated by
constipation and hard stools.
It can be presently managed conservatively to a certain extent by doing the following.
Cleanse the region with mild antiseptic solution like
Savlon and apply ointment containing glycerine, which will help to soothe the part.
The following measures needs to be taken additionally:
1. Local application Lignocaine gel, which would help to anaesthetise the area and relieve pain.
2. Taking
stool softener like Isapgol Husk powder dissolved in water twice daily to relieve and prevent constipation.
3. Consuming soft and easily digestible foods, drinking good quantity of water and eating fruits and vegetables rich in dietary fibres.
By adopting to above measures, you may get relieved of symptoms temporarily. It would advisable to undergo 'cryosurgery' if the symptoms continue or recurs again.
You need to consult Surgeon in this regard for clinical evaluation and appropriate management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
Regards,
Dr.Ashakiran.S.
