TMI- Embarrassing Bathroom RElated Question
I had a really hard time "Going" the other day after not having gone for a week. Now, I'm pretty sure I have a hemorrhoid 
I looked it up on the internet and now I'm freaked out cause webmd talks about thrombosis and a certain kind that needs to be pushed back in (Ummm...gross!)
Has anyone ever had one? Will it just go away?
Its not very painful- only when I sit to use the bathroom...other than that its just a minor irritation.
Sorry for TMI- but I'm freaked out and don't want to ask people I work with.

Don't worry about it. I would go out and buy some Tucks and use them for a few days to help with the irritation.
Keep the area clean and be gentle with yourself.

If it does not go away with OTC medications, go to a gastroentronoligist.

You may not have a hemorrhoid but, you may have a small tear in the area. My DH had this once, and he went to the Doctor. THe MD said to start taking a laxative and it will go away.

Re: TMI- Embarrassing Bathroom RElated Question
I had them very badly after DD was born, drink alot of water, eat a lot of fiber to get regular. You can either use prep-H (which will shrink it) or tucks. Give it a month of doing this and see how it goes. 9 out of 10 times they heal themselves with regularity. Save stool safteners as a last resort, they get aggravted if you get the runs.

Re: TMI- Embarrassing Bathroom RElated Question
like i tell DH all the time, STOP LOOKING AT WEBMD!! it will just make you crazy!!!
get some tucks pads and some glicerin suppositories or some preparation H suppositories. that will help.
drink tons of water and eat tons of veggies.
if it doesnt go away or gets more painful, go to the dr.
feel better!

You said you had not gone for a week. You were definitely constipated, and in my experience, the next poo after constipation will NOT be easy even if you have no 'roids!
