i assume i have a haemarroid (sp) as i often bleed with bowel motions, but today it was alot of blood, more than normal when i wiped and when i went to flush i noticed the water in the bowl was very pink :o i never had that much before, can i assume its just a roid or could it be more?? im going to try and see my Dr this week, but want some reassurance that is all it probably is, i should also say it very rarely hurts when going to the loo, sometimes feels like there are razor blades!!
I have hemorrhoids and there can sometimes be alot of blood like that, and yeah razor blades is a good description sometimes!
But I'd get it checked out to be sure.
Have you been a bit blocked up? Or was the bowel motion a bit more solid than usual? That'll definitely stir up a roid or 2.
Could it be a fissure?
I have one that only plays up every now and again but when it does it is exactly as you described.
It is more than likely due to your little friend ;) but any bleeding from the bowel should be investigated hun. You don't have to be really worried, but it is still concerning enough to get it checked out.
Red blood is not usually a problem - most likely the 'roid as you suspect. But it's always best to get it checked just to be sure.
phew sounds good (well you know what i mean :lol: ) yep red blood ive actually thought a few times it may have been AF, thank goodness it wasnt!!
willow i never really get blocked up, im pretty regular!
The razor blade feelin brings back memories - fissure!!! I didn't get any dr to look at it (cos I'm shy and I don't want people poking me back there!) but I could feel it tear everytime I went for a number two. :redface:
I got some cream from the chemist (and after asking for the cream, I'm never going there again!) and it took care of it for me. Its not pleasant applying it.. but better than the pain.
Agree with the others - it is good to get bowel bleeding checked out just in case. :)
Could be a fissure too that's definitely a razor blade like feeling!
wonderfull!! more damaged parts :lol:
I think if any of us were told as young girls that this is what we have to look forward to when we become Mums that none of us would have had kids :rofl: such a glamourous life isn't it?
J- A small amount is most likely to be a 'roid or fissure. Especially with the pain you describe.
But a lot of bright red blood can be a bleed from the GI tract which is really serious. Even though it is probably nothing, always best to get rectal bleeding checked out.
If you ever get a lot, as in half a cup full or more, you should go straight to drs. Blood when wiping and a few drops in the bowl is no considered to be a lot. (just to clarify ;) )
Sometimes a 'roid will burst and there may be clots & bleeding (yay!) - when that's happened to me it's given me relief from the 'roid similar to that achieved when one's been lanced.
Hopefully you'll feel better in a few days :hug:
:hug: Jols. I hope it's just a roid!
Jol's honey..I hope its a riod for ya babe...let me have my fissure to myself ;)
tis all your maz!!
sherie :rofl: too true!!
ange thanks hun!
kaz it never bother ne :dunno: just bleeds
yeah a haem can bleed alot when you are pushing out a poo and colour the water like that. You should be really concerned if your motion has dark, old blood in it as that indicates bleeding from inside the bowel. Bright red blood is good, if it can be good! As it is fresh and just happened.
A small amount is fine, but large amounts is not fine.:
i don't mean to harp, but i think of the millions of people googling the term bleeding from bowels. Would hate for someone not to go to drs when they needed too. ;)
thanks ange good point!
Ive always had painful complicated pregnancies never blissful, but im scared now, with this being normal after having babies what the heck do we do to our selves:jawdrop:. My goodness my kids better wanna care and love and look after me in my old age.:rolleyes::
AJP oh my does not sound good get it checked out. :hug:
My Mum has just been to the Dr re this problem and mentioned that her sister has something similar and he told her to always get it checked out asap. I don't think he was trying to upset her but trying to make sure it wasn't ignored.
Just for peace of mind I would be going to the Dr.
If you need a hand with the kids give one of us a call :)
awwww thanks rivlas your a gem :hug:
As someone who has a G.I condition & has to deal with this issue a fair bit, bright red blood means it's fresh blood & coming from your lower bowel. As my specialist says it's good news as it is usually nothing serious, As long as it's only a small amount of bleeding :)
Jols i'm glad your going to get it checked it out & i hope it's just a hemorrhoid :hug:
