PLEASE DON’T BE SCARED OFF BY LENGTH. It seems important for me to give you the proper background info on the problem so that you can answer it as best as possible. Please read through it and help me out if you know anything about anal fissures, hemorrhoids, or other problems that can result in these symptoms. I will greatly appreciate all of your help!
Oh, and if it helps, I am a 21 year-old female.
So this is kind of disgusting, but I’ve been experiencing some pain and bleeding on my anus. This started about a week ago. I had been constipated that weekend, and then on Monday, I was able to make a bowl movement, but I experienced a burning-like pain, and when I wiped, there were drops of bright red blood on the toilet paper. After this, my anus continued to hurt off and on for about 2-3 days (although it did not bleed again). Then, tonight (8 days after initial bleeding), after about 3 days of no pain or bleeding, it happened again. I was a little constipated earlier, but I was careful not to strain myself, as I thought that the initial problem was hemorrhoids, and I know that those can be caused from strain during constipation. So, I waited all day until I could easily go to the bathroom. But, when I went, I again experienced a burning-like pain, and there was again drops of blood on the toilet paper after wiping.
I initially thought that I had hemorrhoids, due to the constipation problem. However, I looked up pictures of external hemorrhoids, and I definitely don’t have anything like that. So then I thought I might just have internal hemorrhoids, but I looked in the mirror (a very difficult task, I might add), and I noticed a bright red scratch-looking thing, about half the size of my pinky nail right at the base of my anus. I looked up pictures of anal fissures, and this seemed to fit that description. However, I have questions for people who know something about anal fissures:
Is it possible to experience a few days of pain relief when you have a fissure? I would have assumed that it would be constant (if not slightly-lessening) pain day after day until the fissure healed.
What could I have done to get this? I have not had anal sex, nor have I had anything up there, lol. So how could a fissure could have occured? To be honest, I do remember scratching myself there on accident about 2 months ago, to where I experienced pain for about a day, but I hadn’t felt anything since then, so the two seem unrelated.
I’m very confused. If you know anything about anal fissures, hemorrhoids, or any other problem that this could be, please let me know.
And yes, I know I should go to the doctor. I am going to try to make an appointment soon, but I’m very busy, so I just wanted some background information if I could find it.

Hi there! I was constipated for a few days which isn’t anything really new with me, but with the pregnancy it’s been a little worse. I’m 26 weeks 4 days along. And when I do have the urge to go #2 I have to strain myself pretty much to go and I believe that is what caused my hemorrhoid… Lovely. I swear it’s one thing after another with this pregnancy, lol. But I want to know if I can use preparation h just on the outside. I have to wait for my clinic to open yet but need some relief. I’ve been taking metamucil 2 times a day to help me pass my bowels easier, but nothing really and bought Fiber One cereal yesterday and start eating that. I know that use to help me but we’ll see if it will with being pregnant. If you have any other ideas that would be great. Thank you so much and sorry for TMI.

I and my daughter lately have had our share with constipation lately. She drinks a lot of milk and eats a lot of dairy products. I love sweets and deviled eggs. What is better for us to eat so we can stop the constipation issues? It is making us feel miserable and basically lately for a few days , i do not really want to eat and she strains to no end to relief herself and i think she is going to pull a hemorrhoid if she does not stop it .

I have a prolapsed internal hemorrhoid and plan to see a Dr. soon about it but was curious what the difference is? The description I have read online sound the same except one is from external and the other is from internal hemmies. Thanks!
Also, about a year ago my hemm. gave me a few days of moderate pain and bleeding. What caused this? Did it burst or something. I didn’t think anything of it except that I wanted relief from the pain but I let it heal on it’s own. Thanks!
