HEY THERE!

Listen, I went through something pretty similar—you know, after... well, I saw traces of blood on the toilet paper and let me tell you, I was absolutely terrified. No ointments, no creams, no suppositories—I hadn't tried anything yet. Since it happened following a gynecological surgery and some major dietary changes, it just kind of cleared up on its own after about 3 or 4 months. However, things were even worse after I had my baby, but luckily an old lady gave me a recipe that worked wonders for me. Seriously, I went out and bought a whole bunch of ointments and plugs first just to make things slightly more bearable, and then I moved on to this.
The recipe is actually super simple. Find some lard—you might already have some in your kitchen—and some dried calendula (you can find that at any local herbal shop). You basically just fry them together and pop it in the fridge. I think I only used it for about 5 days and it helped immensely.🙏
Another close family member—an older woman—was telling me she was having issues, specifically with a real hemorrhoid that had actually prolapsed, which is incredibly painful; she couldn't even sit down. I gave her some of that mixture (it had been sitting in my fridge for two years and I didn't want to toss it!) and when I checked in on her a couple of days ago, she said it’s fantastic—the pain is less, and it feels like the swelling is actually going down.

So, I really, truly recommend this because it actually works.👍

I was wondering if any of you might be dealing with other issues stemming from hemorrhoids... For me, besides having irregular bowel movements (only about once a week), I’ve been experiencing this back pain, especially when I haven't had a BM in a while! In the mornings and evenings, I just stick to Bioactive yogurt and some cereal, and during the day, I try to eat as much fruit as possible, so I think my diet is actually pretty decent... I've been dealing with these internal hemorrhoids for about five years now. I saw a proctologist once who told me surgery is necessary, but I'm really hesitant because of all the talk regarding post-op pain... though, honestly, this back pain has been bothering me since the summer and can get quite uncomfortable at times! Has anyone else here dealt with similar symptoms?...

I just stepped out of the bathroom and, honestly, I’m sitting here in total shock... I feel like I need to find a proctologist immediately because I was absolutely terrified. There was blood—enough to make me panic—and now I'm just reeling, wondering if I've already gone pale from the fright... It doesn't actually hurt that much, and there isn't any itching... It's just that my stool is incredibly hard, and then suddenly, the bleeding starts... I am sincerely hoping it's just hemorrhoids because...

It’s highly likely we're looking at hemorrhoids here—specifically internal ones—triggered by some pretty irritated tissue from passing hard stool.
Look, just go see a proctologist for an exam so you can actually get some sleep without worrying about it.

I’ve been there too. I dealt with both internal and external issues. Honestly, the internal ones don't even really hurt; it's just that when they pop, you end up bleeding everywhere and things get pretty messy. 😲 Just pure fear.

Good luck!

P.S. I managed to sort my situation out internally in about three or four days. Meanwhile, I was bleeding constantly every single day for six months straight. So don't sweat it—there’s definitely a cure out there. :-)

Hey there—just joined the forum and I’ve got a question about hemorrhoids. I've been dealing with this for a while now, but honestly, it's never been a huge deal. It just kind of flares up one day, leaks a bit, then disappears for months at a time before suddenly popping back up again. Should I be worried enough to go see a doctor? I actually went in for some checkups recently regarding the hemorrhoids—did all the blood work and everything—and everything came back totally fine. I'd really appreciate any help or advice on how to finally get this sorted out.

It’s all relative, isn't it?
Some people struggle their whole lives and just keep patching things up with the same old creams, thinking they're fine.
For others, the situation just keeps getting worse over time.
Everything depends on the individual and what you actually want to do about it.
Personally, I got tired of the creams and just went under the knife to get it sorted once and for all.

A doctor isn't going to see chemical sensitivities in your blood work; they won't know unless you actually speak up.
I just hope you aren't the type who’s too embarrassed to talk about it or deal with an exam.

Nah, I'm not one of those types—but honestly, I haven't had any massive issues popping up here and there lately. It was just mentioned that these things could be signs of other underlying illnesses, so I wanted to mention that I've already gone ahead and done all my medical testing.

Does anyone know the name of that little gadget for hemorrhoids that Dr. Rosa came up with?

Yeah, apparently they guarantee nothing shows up for the next 20 years after just one month using that little gadget!

I’m a new member here. I’m getting on in years, and just like many of you, I’m dealing with some pretty brutal issues. This all started back in 1996 as a result of being deployed in a combat zone for an extended period due to my job. Since then, I’ve cycled through endless creams like HEMOPROPIN and Factu, various suppositories, and all sorts of pills including Tylenol, Hemeroidin, and more. I’ve even dabbled in alternative medicine and home remedies suggested by various gurus. I have undergone every possible exam imaginable (some of which were incredibly invasive and uncomfortable), seen countless doctors and private clinics (like Dr. Fila and others), and even had surgery to fix everything. Yet, despite that procedure being less than two years ago, I’ve already dealt with the same issues twice. As for my diet, I did a complete overhaul, even though I wasn't really eating much fatty, salty, spicy, or heavy food to begin with. I avoided dried foods as much as possible, especially once things took a turn for the worse. My bowel movements are regular, but only if I have a cup of decaf in the morning and smoke a cigarette—which isn't exactly healthy, considering I hadn't touched a cigarette for about 14 years before the surgery (but man, people will do anything just to find relief). I don't struggle with excess weight; standing at 6'1", I've stayed at about 178 lbs for a long time, even though I used to be 209 lbs of pure muscle before this sickness, thanks to staying active and training for work. In fact, I’d go so far as to say that because of the dietary changes and the drop in physical activity (missing the gym, my daily 10-12 miles mile runs, and martial arts), I’ve lost weight unintentionally, which is something I’m not proud of.
Honestly, what can I even say about all this?!
The problems are back! I don't mean to discourage anyone out there fighting this battle; if anything, I want to cheer you guys on to keep pushing and never give up. Instead, I’m hoping someone might offer some advice I could try, so that one day I can finally get back to a normal life and the physical activities I miss so much!!!
Regarding Dr. Rosa and his patent, the product is called HEM-PRO, it says $1100, and you order it directly from him over the phone. The treatment lasts anywhere from 10 to 70 days, where you apply the product rectally and hold it in for at least two hours. It works on the principle of magnetic therapy (which confuses me a bit, because I’ve been wearing a magnetic bracelet on my wrist for ten years now and I still have these hemorrhoid issues—I mostly just use the bracelet to help with my old sleep problems). Apparently, once you buy it, you own the product, which is how the Doctor shifts the responsibility away if the treatment doesn't work. HE GUARANTEES SUCCESS FOR MEN!!!!!!
I haven't found any confirmation online for his claim that Russians have been using this method to solve hemorrhoid problems for decades (since 1930, if I recall correctly)! For that reason, I am asking if anyone has actually tried the product or is planning to try it soon—please reach out so I can hear about your results!!!!!!! Thank you in advance. E

Over the last month, I've been noticing these weird white clumps in my stool. I haven't
noticed any blood, swelling, pain, or anything else unusual, except that my
bowel movements have become more mushy and slimy, and these white bits keep showing up regardless of
what I eat. Is it possible this is just hemorrhoids?
Thanks!

Could someone please post Dr. Rosa's phone number here? I was watching a live broadcast the other day where he was a guest, but I tuned in too late and missed his contact info. I tried everything—calling the station's office and sending them an email—but I haven't heard anything back. If anyone has his number, please share it; I really don't want to keep feeling like a walking hemorrhoid anymore. 👎 Thanks in advance! 🙏

Can someone please help me... I'm seriously freaking out right now...

A few days ago, I noticed something strange near my anus... It looked like a little piece of dark skin (darker than the surrounding area) was "protruding" outward from the anus.
It was slightly swollen, there wasn't any blood, and it only hurt a tiny bit when touched, so I didn't worry too much since it didn't really feel like typical hemorrhoid symptoms.

But today, while I was showering, I felt two tiny little lumps down there (really small, about the size of a pea, but round). They feel hard to the touch and they hurt a little. There's no blood, and it doesn't hurt unless I actually touch them....

Now I'm starting to get really anxious... Does anyone know what this could be?? It doesn't look like a hemorrhoid to me, but I have no idea what else it could be??

Does anyone here know anything about this?? What should I do??

It's probably not hemorrhoids. I mean, hemorrhoids don't really leave traces in your stool, unless maybe you experience some bleeding if things get a bit rough during a bowel movement. They're more like little clusters of blood vessels in the intestinal wall rather than something actually inside the stool itself.

A quick correction—skin tags (the American term for 😁) are actually just enlarged veins... similar to the ones you see on the shins

Hey, it’s a little weird that you're saying it doesn't look like hemorrhoids to you.

And you clearly have no clue what it actually could be.

Look, maybe you're just confused, but based on how you're describing this, I'd say it is definitely a hemorrhoid.

And no, it doesn't always have to be bleeding or excruciatingly painful for you to realize it matches exactly what everyone else on the forum is talking about.

Unfortunately.

If you aren't sure, go see a doctor quickly. They'll figure it out since you'll have to show them your backside anyway.

So, I dealt with a lump too—felt just like a tick, super hard...
I went through three boxes of Detralex (on prescription), took chamomile baths, used some Factu ointment, and it finally cleared up...
Every now and then there’s still a little itching or burning—so I have to dodge spicy food and stay on top of my hygiene—but things are looking good so far...
Occasionally, I'll pick up some of that Hemeroidin (it's similar to Detralex but a bit milder) and go through a box just to help strengthen those veins up a bit...
