Could this be a hemorrhoid?

danielle Asked: Could this be a hemorrhoid?

TMI but I've been searching the internet for hours and can't find the information I need.

After having diarrhea off and on (mostly on) for the past week or so, I've got a swollen red bump near my "backdoor." It doesn't hurt to use the restroom but it is tender to the touch and is pretty sore after I get home from working all day and I've been active plus had my clothes rubbing back there all day. Does this sound like a hemorrhoid? If so, what is the quickest way to treat it? If not, what could it be?

I had them really bad while I was pregnant and right after I delivered. I bled like crazy every time I went to the rest room and it was extremely painful. icon sad Could this be a hemorrhoid? come to find out I also had a fissure.

Anyway there are "external hemorrhoids" so maybe it is? Maybe you just have a high pain tolerance in "that area" so it doesn't hurt when you go to the bathroom.

Can't say for sure, but it definitely sounds like a hemorrhoid. It could have come from constant irritation from having the runs for so long. Here are some things that will help: warm baths, keep the area clean (use flushable wipes), go easy on fatty foods, and applying a bit of hemorrhoidal cream to the area if necessary.
