hemorrhoids??tired of hurting
| Tue, 12-06-2005 - 6:19pm |
ok, ive been having problems for months. not only these but w/ BV and yeast inf. well 3-4 mos. ago i had what seemed to be an anal fissure. i tried baths but had to quit them w/ the yeast inf and all. tried dome fiber caps but it was still hurting when i went #2. it feels like my hole is not big enough and it rips open when i go even if my stools are really soft. i've been usung wet wipes instead of tp for a month or two. sometimes it doesnt hurt too bad, other times i want to scream, sometimes it hurts for a few hrs. afterward. i dont have ins. so can only go to the student hlth ctr, but i do not want to go and have them look at my butt. ive been there enough times lately for vaginal inf, and am enough embarrassed. should i get some prep. h? please help.

Hi and Welcome aboard!
You owe it to yourself to find out what is really going on.
Hi and welcome.
I agree with Lynn --- you really do need to get this checked out and find out for sure what it is as hemorrhoids and fissures are treated differently, plus you need to find out for sure on the other infection, etc.
Fissures generally are tx with a steroid cream, not something like preparation H.
I feel for you as I have had a recurring fissure for the last 6 years and it is really one big pain in the A** :)
