External Hemorrhoid With Thrombosis? (image Included) Posted: 01-03-08 18:30pm
My anus has been moderately sore the last
week. A quick smear of Preparation-H
brought temporary relief. Upon examination
there is small, hard external lump with a
trace of blood leakage.
Here is a digital picture of my anus
(can't believe I just typed that.)
Male, 42 years old, no chronic or current
heath issues but this. No history of
hemorrhoids or anal skin tags.
My best guess is this is a small external
hemorrhoid with thrombosis and should
resolve in a week or two with care. Is
this a reasonable guess on my part?
Thanks.

sounds like a reasonable diagnosis on your
part, yes. looks sore. i don't think you
are allowed to post images or links to
images though so it's likely this will be
removed by the mods. try to keep a good
diet - lots of high fibre foods and fruit
and veg etc and drink water.
