Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Suggest Treatment For Blood In Stool And Constipation
i have been having painful bowel movements with bright red blood being left on the toilet paper and sometimes in the toilet. also have a pulse sensation around the anus area in between bowel movements as well. the pain feels like it is focused in a particular spot slightly inside the anus while having bowel movements. is this anything serious or just hemmoroidal?
Your description of the problem point to a hemmorhoid. However, it is not to be taken lightly. Other sources of bleeding and causes need to be excluded.
Add more Fibre, fruits and vegetables and increase water intake. Exercising for half an hour a day, at least, will help improve circulation. (if there are no contraindications for exercise)
I recommend seeing your physician right away to confirm diagnosis and prevent further reflecting. If you have large quantities of bleeding (more than 30ml- 2 tablespoonfuls), or feel giddy, have severe abdominal pain, chest pain, please go to the ER.
Hope this helps. Please get back to us if you need any clarification. Wish you good health
