How long does it take for hemorrhoids to clear?
I have a small hemorrhoid and it isn't too bothersome, just itchy. I just diagnosed it as a hemorrhoid today so I've taken the following precautions-i don't wipe(i rinse in the shower afterwards), plan to eat more fiber, and I'm using preparation H. Will it take more than a week or 2 to clear up? Also, with preparation H should I apply it after every bowel movement? And last….do most people consider hemorrhoids to be embarrasing like how people consider having diarrhea embarrasing?
Hemorrhoids?
My husband has been having some bleeding, and it looks like a hemorrhoid. The only thing is that he is not having any pain or itching. Do you think some hemorrhoids could be unpainful or would it be something else? Also, if it is a hemorrhoid, do you think it's bleeding because we didn't know about it sooner and could have treated it?
