I had one my freshmen year in college, I thought the pads and medication would help but they just made the itch go away, I had to get it removed. My gf at the time who I had just started dating went with me and she ended being the one to hold my cheeks open while the doc removed the clot, it was nightmare lol.

I had to have one cut away a few years ago, shit hurt like a *****. Having to numb it then a shit load of blood. The shit after a few days was the worst I ever felt.

I had the same thing except, the doctor used a tool that spread a small rubber band and snapped it shut around TWO of them that had become what they call a fissure!!!!.....they start bleeding and you have to get them taken care of . Man talk about pain!!

What exactly causes them?

Causes of Hemorrhoids

Due to the extra stress in the lower part of the rectum/anus which leads to bleeding, and can be prevented by reducing anal stress and providing protection/treatment to mucus membrane of intestine, this brings relaxation to the body.

There are a group of muscles around the opening of the anus which help in passing stool. These muscles are called the anal sphincter. The stool collects in the rectum and the sphincter muscles keep the anus closed. When the pressure from the stool increases on the walls of the rectum, the sphincter relaxes and stool is pushed out of the anus.

Pressure is needed to expel the excreta through the anus, but sometimes if too much pressure is applied (say during constipation) then that causes the hemorrhoids to enlarge and they may get pushed out of their normal position with the stool. ). This excess pressure could be caused due to any of the following reasons:

Pregnancy – Women who are pregnant are prone to enlarged hemorrhoids. This may be due to the pressure exerted by the weight of the baby. The pressure increases the blood flow to the anal canal causing hemorrhoids to swell.Hormonal changes during pregnancy could also cause increased activity in the hemorrhoidal tissues.

Heavy Lifting – Lifting heavy weights can in some cases lead to hemorrhoids.

Chronic Diarrhea – loose watery stools occuring more than three times a day, caused mostly due to a gastrointestinal infection.

Varicose veins – enlarged, twisted, painful superficial veins resulting from poorly functioning valves.

Constipation – Constipation causes additional straining in the hemorrhoidal tissue area .

Hereditary – If your parents or grandparents had abnormal hemorrhoids then you are more likely to suffer from it too.

Obesity – Individuals who are obese and significantly overweight can have an increased probability of contracting diseased hemorrhoids.

Uncomfortable seats – Sitting in cramped seats while travelling long distances. While travelling you tend to visit the toilet infrequently and hold back on emptying your bowel. If you are a frequent traveler you have higher chances of having abnormal hemorrhoidal tissues.

There is a way to speed up the healing process.

Lay in a tub of hot water until your anus is relaxed.

Then manually push them back in w/ your fingers.

It's kinda like a ball of nerves pushing through your muscle (between the fibers.)
