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.
for the past few months it has felt like the area around my anus is a little swollen and very sore, i have been to the drs. and they said it was probably hemeroids and it is still giving me problems. i have recently noticed that there is 2 red lines from this area and goes towards the bottom of my back. could this hemeroids or something more?
Hello, my name is dr.Dorina Gurabardhi. I understand your concern. It looks like hemorrhoids. Some advice that I can give to you are: -Apply an over-the-counter hemorrhoid cream or suppository containing hydrocortisone -use pads containing witch hazel or a numbing agent. -Soak regularly in a warm bath or sitz bath. Soak your anal area in plain warm water 10 to 15 minutes two to three times a day. Hope it helps, kind regards!
