How To Treat A Large Hemorrhoid On Leg?
I have a pretty big hemorrhoid. I got up to go to the bathroom and felt something running down my leg. When I looked, it was blood. It was dark and smells awful, kind of like diarrhea. I had drops of it all the way to the shower. I took a shower and put on more shorts and blood has already leaked through the underwear and shorts, in a matter of minutes. I have a dr. appt. tomorrow morning, but was wondering if I need to go to the emergency room.

Yes, please visit the ER. Some imaging and CBC, anoscopy and other studies are needed. Medical or surgery treatment will be decided.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
