Ming and quahog mtb , so very funny, but at least its got us talking about mens health problems.
Worried as for the blood, it could be due to dehydration and being constipated, and then giving birth to a hard log, it happens to me, drink plenty of water and eat some fruit, also try another Dr, some are a bit rough because theyre embarased even more than you are,just think how youd feel if you had to do it to a total stranger in a clinical environment.

Senior consultant takes a group of medical students into an autopsy room, corpse lyeing on the slab, ,the consultant wells the medical students that they should observe and follow everything he does.
He dons a pair of disposable gloves and inserts his index finger in the anus of the dead person, pulls it out and licks his finger, all the other medical students do the same, so as not to be marked down, all except one chap.
When they had finished the consultant points out that, the purpose of the examination was observation, and that he used his right index finger to examine the corpse but his left index finger he licked.Posted 7 months ago # -

holy arse related thread resurrection..
I sympathised with the OP after reading this thread.. I felt their pain and knew exactly where they were coming from
thankfully after a visit to the bum specialist today (why choose to specialise in colorectal surgery..!?) I have had my worst fears put to rest after a Colitis diagnosis which is very treatable.. and the best bit is I still get a colonoscopy next week so look out for a video thread..
big relief.. don't be ashamed of your disfunctional arseholes folks..

don't panic if you're left with a tail coming out of your arse, had a fissure sutured a while ago as a result of a crohns related complication and was shocked to find that the end of it hangs out of your arse !!
Would've been nice to have been told that in advance

i ate a load of beetroot once and when i went to the toilet i thought was was dying!
I just smirked to myself remembering the first time I had most of a jar of Beetroot and worried myself silly the next day..
OP I wouldn't ride much for now.
Have you had any indigestion/acid reflux recently? (just to rule out another thing).

so much time in hosital, so many stories of pr bleeds, haematemesis and the like. professionalism forbids me from describing the latest 'slipped while naked' incident.
but yes, you should absolutely get this checked out and keep doing so until your satisfaction. guidance here (in case you've not googled already)

No further bleeding since I last posted; twice daily applications of Anusol HC and a series of blood tests.
Nothing back on the blood tests yet but as I'm otherwise asymptomatic the doc says no referal at the moment unless the bleeding reoccurs.
I'll keep you all informed

A bum consultant would recommend against the use of Anusol and similiar creams for tretment of a ruptured pile or fissure as it just keeps the wound moist and prevents proper healing. I know.
These are my rules
1. Drink lots and lots and lots of water.
2. Eat figs and prunes and stuff like that.
3. Never, never, never, never, never skimp on your bran flakes; even if you really fancy poached eggs (eat some bran first).
4. Never ever use codine based pain killers.I've got pretty sever bum issues and these are the four rules I live by, if I skimp on even 1 of these rules I'll be in agony for ~3 days, not being able to sit down, walk, concentrate, owt!

never listen to advice from the internet either..
the general advice about increasing fibre to help with bum issues is not always correct..
insoluble fibre such as wheat bran and wholemeal bread is very detrimental for some bum issues such as colitis..

as i suffer from crohns disease and generally frequent the lil boys room sometimes on an hourly basis it does tend to bring on the wee bleed or 50.....sometimes it can be a pile or in my case sometimes its the lining of the bowel thats inflamed.but red red is usualy the old duke of argyll.if its lighter and mucussy id go see a gastrointeroligist...just pray they dont give you klean-prep to empty you or you'll be pissing out your arse for days....
anyhoo hope all gets sorted for you "worried"...if you have bupa you wont wait months for colonoscopy.Posted 6 months ago #
