Dealing with hemorrhoids – any advice?
in Health ·
I’m heading to the pharmacy tomorrow to pick up some cream and maybe grab some calendula ointment too; I’m honestly at a loss for what else to try besides just hoping this all clears up on its own.
At this point, I'm actually terrified to even use the bathroom.😢 ?

I misspoke—not little dots, but more like blood clots, lumps, or blisters. Dark purple or blackish ones.

You can only really see them when you're relaxed, or if you slightly spread the skin with your fingers.

Hey everyone, I never thought I’d be the guy asking questions about this kind of thing online.
Over the last couple of days, I’ve noticed two little black spots—one slightly larger than the other—right at the opening. It started with this weird, uncomfortable ache that actually made me stop and wonder what was going on. Naturally, I jumped straight on Google to see if I could figure it out. 🤦
From what I’ve managed to dig up, it looks like an early stage of something. I’m pretty sure I know what caused it, too: I skipped the bathroom for over five days last week, which turned into a really painful, rough situation once I finally went. 😢
Basically, my diet has been pretty dry and inconsistent lately.
What I want to know is, for those of you who have dealt with this or are going through it now, what’s the first move? What should I be using? How does this usually progress, and is there any rule of thumb for how fast this turns into something more serious?
