Does Bleeding While Passing Stool Indicate Sign Of Hemorrhoid?
I had a normal delivery in 2009 feb with 6 stitches. I used xylocaine gel after delivery for passing stools. But from last week i'm having problem in passing stools. If the size of stool is big it is paining. From last week 2 times bleeding came while passing stools. Whether it is symptoms of hemorrhoid?

Hello,
The blood in stool is not the sole sign of hemorrhoid. It may be hemorrhoid, fissure or others. Needs clinical examination of proctoscopy with consultant surgeon for confirmation and further care. Till that time, high fiber diet with laxative intake and sitz bath will support.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
