I have bleeding coming from my back passage.
I have bleeding coming from my back passage.
Brief Answer:
bleeding, hemorrhoids, fissure
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
yes, we understand that bleeding from anus is an alarming thing to be noticed by a person.
just want to calm down. If it is a first episode then medicines would help.
if the bleeding is associated with burning pain during and after passage of stools then it is due to 'Anal Fissure'. An ANOBLISS or ESCOT cream applied before and after motions for 10days would solve your problems.
Try to avoid getting constipated by consuming high fiber diet with sufficient fluid intake. Green leafy vegetables and fruits would help you. Cut down on meat and other non-veg foods.
if the bleeding is painless and is associated with a lumpish swelling sliding out of anus during motions then it could be haemorrhoid. Early stage hemorrhoids can be managed with medicines and dietary changes. Use a laxative like GUTCLEAR / DUPHALAC 15ml once at bedtime for 10 days.
If the problems still persist for more than 10days, then it would be wise to consult a colorectal surgeon / Proctologist inorder to find the exact diagnosis and treatment.
Take care.
