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’m 21 yrs yrs old and I was recently diagnosed with pneumonia. I really have a hard time coughing and maybe it affected my anus.. Few days ago I observed that there was a small swell in my anus and I’m really having a hard time releasing my poop. Sometimes there is blood & blood clots coming out together with my poop. Is it serious? Should I see a doctor now?
hello ,myself dr yash i have gone through your question. According to your history , probably you are suffering with Hemorrhoids (pilles) or Rectal polyp (which is associated with swelling , blood and blood clots). To diagnose both you have to go for Anal clinical examination (proctoscopy). consult with a colorectal surgeon. i think i answered your question. thanks
