Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I am 42 and noticed yesturday I was bleeding quite a bit. It was when I went to open my bowels, I have a little bit of a prolapsed bowel and often have to press around my vagina to empty. I have a fair amount of pain in my right side of my stomach and down my legs. Should I be worried and see my own doctor?
Hello Ma'am I really appreciate your concern Chronic constipation can lead to hardening of stool in the rectum If I were your treating doctor I would have advised you to take stool softening agents like liquid paraffin or lactulose to relieve constipation.

Suggest Treatment For Constipation
Hello Ma am I really appreciate your concern Chronic constipation can lead to hardening of stool in the rectum If I were your treating doctor I would have advised you to take stool softening agents like liquid paraffin or lactulose to relieve constipation. Bleeding and intestinal prolapse is a matter of concern In my opinion you should consult a general surgeon for clinical and per rectal examination to confirm the diagnosis and if required a colonoscopy. You should take lots of dietary fibers and fluids Avoid smoking and alcohol consumption Hope this helps you if you have any more queries please feel free to ask for, I will gladly answer you Best wishes
