you should go to the Doc, But chances are
it is nothing more than a hemorrhoid.
Bright red blood usually is a hemorrhoid.
But please go to the Doc and find out and
it will give you peace of mine.. If it is
cancer or something else you will have
caught it early. But don’t be afraid to
go.. I think it really is just an internal
hemorrhoid..

Hi!
I agree with the previous user that you're
probably having hemorrhoids( condition in
which the veins around the anus or lower
rectum are swollen and inflamed.)
Do you have chronic constipation or
diarrhea? Are you straining to move stool?
I guess you are having internal
hemorrhoids (changed veins inside the
anus) The most common symptom of internal
hemorrhoids is bright red blood covering
the stool, on toilet paper, or in the
toilet bowl. In most cases, hemorrhoidal
symptoms will go away within a few days.
To avoid recurrence, keep stools soft
(increase fiber and fluids in your diet),
eliminate straining and don't delay the
defecation after the urge has occurred. To
relive the symptoms you can also use a
hemorrhoidal cream or suppository. If your
symptoms don't go away in few days, you
should seek medical attention.
Also, you need to be aware of possibility
that internal hemorrhoids may protrude
through the anus outside the body and
become irritated and painful.
Constipation,thin stool, stomach cramps,
bright red blood in your stool,
unexplained weight loss, sense of
fullness, nausea and vomiting, gas and
bloating, feeling extremely tired are
symptoms of colon cancer and I don't think
you're having it.

My family Dr treated me for months for
hemmorids. Until, I could not insert nthe
suppositorroes he gave me. it felt like I
was hitting rock. I went and it was annal
cancer. Thank God!! i had a colonoscopy 3
year ago they said they could nhave missed
it because it was right at the end where
they go in na dthey don't lootoo close
there they look further up, so please
gdon't play around with hemmorids when it
could be cancer. I was blessed I took
chemo and radiation and am cancer free
now===Praise God.

For how long you are having constipation?
Do you take enough fiber (fruits,
vegetables,whole grain breads) and water
every day?

How are you?
Are you constipated still?
Do you find bright red blood on a toilet
paper?
Have you thought of visiting your doctor?

Do you have gases and feel bloated?
You can experience bigger stomach because
of constipation and because of increased
fiber intake.
You should increase the fiber in your diet
slowly. If you increase your fiber intake
too quickly, you may experience bloating
and gases. Gas and bloating usually
improve as you get used to eating more
fiber. The best way to increase your fiber
intake is eat a wide variety of high fiber
foods.
I think it'll be better for you to visit
your GP and have a rectal digital exam.
It won't take you hours and it'll ease
your mind.
That way you'll be more capable to study
for your big exam.
Thinking of you!
Take care and take some action!

I'm happy that your symptoms have
subsided.
I guess you had typical hemorrhoid
problems and in future you'll need to pay
attention on your food and water intake.
Be aware that there is a chance to develop
the same problem later, so if you
experience it again, please ask for
medical attention.
Best wishes!

Consequences of low fiber diet
Posted: 01-24-08 08:01am

So all this pain was from simple
constipation, which was caused by improper
diet. Applemint is probably young... as
she reports that she's immersed in
important school examinations... and she
probably eats a lot of high-energy "junk"
food... typical habit of harried young
people. This is a prescription for
constipation.
Applemint mentioned she was eating
bananas, probably in reaction to advice to
eat fruits and veggies. I did that, and
drank apple juice, for the same reason.
This did not help my constipation, years
ago. Then when I married and became a
father, my wife brought up the subject of
the "BRAT" diet, to abate runny stools in
kids. That acronym stands for BANANA,
RICE, APPLES, and TOAST. These items,
therefore, counteract and do not support
one's wish to abate constipation.
So not all fruits are created equal, in
this regard.
Once again, I am encouraging young people,
in particular, to wise up on this subject
which warrants conversation among old
people, but, unfortunately, not young
people.
In a word, constipation is DIETARY, and
there must be plenty of it going
undiscussed, thanks to all the junk food
that young people eat.
