This is grim and gross as a warning
I've suffered with piles since before I had my child but they definitely got worse after, and that was 4 years ago. They occasionally flare once every few months. I'm almost certain one burst as I felt a sharp twinge in anus and blood since, and week before I felt the biggest hemorrhoid protruding.
I am trying to be logical here but of course a part of my anxiety worries what if.
However, is it typical for a burst hemorrhoid to bleed upon wiping 24 hours later? It was dripping in toilet to start with, that's eased but now if I dab with loo roll it's still pink/red speck. I looked at my butt hole (glorious) yesterday and it was very red. I'm using anusol and had salt baths. When should I worry?
My anxious mind is telling me it's advance secondary bowel cancer and my time is up. My logical side knows I have the biggest hemorrhoids in the world.
