Why is my anus swollen and painful?

Patient's Query

I was having stomach problems around last week or so and it came with frequent stooling and about a couple of days ago it stopped but my anus has been in pains since then and it seems like something is swelling I have a picture if you’d need one I’m suspecting it’s pile but I just need an expert’s opinion on it and what medication I can use Thank you

Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

It's understandable to be concerned about your symptoms, which may suggest the presence of hemorrhoids, especially after recent bowel issues. Pain and swelling in the anal area can occur due to straining or irritation. It's important to maintain a high-fiber diet, stay hydrated, and consider over-the-counter treatments like creams or suppositories designed for hemorrhoid relief. However, seeing a gastroenterologist is advisable for a thorough examination and tailored treatment.

I drink 6l of water a day is that good?

Female | 20

Drinking 6 liters of water a day is generally more than what most people need, and it could lead to an imbalance in your body’s electrolytes. It’s best to drink water according to your thirst and daily activities. I suggest you consult a general physician to discuss your water intake and overall hydration needs.

It seems like you suffer from probably the most common disease called hemorrhoids, also called piles. Symptoms involve pain, itching, and bleeding in the anal area. As a result, hemorrhoids can be due to straining during bowel movements, overweight, or sitting on the toilet for a long time. To get relief from the discomfort, drink enough water, eat foods rich in fiber such as fruits and vegetables, or use over-the-counter creams if necessary. Nevertheless, if the condition lasts longer, make sure you go to the doctor.

Does pyrantel pamoate get rid of tape worms?

Other | 55

No, Pyrantel pamoate kills roundworms and hookworms; however it does not kill tapeworm. If you think about the infection with tapeworms, it is recommended to refer a gastroenterologist for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

i have swollen veins near anus .

Male | 22

Bulging veins around your rear end are basically varicosities, and such blood vessels are called hemorrhoids. This can occur if you strain when having a bowel movement, are overweight, or sit for extended periods. The signs can be pain, itching, or bleeding. To feel better, use over-the-counter creams or sit in warm water (sitz bath) several times a day. More fiber intake can be really beneficial as well.

Sir Yesterday I was sitting and enjoyed some snacks.suddenly I felt uncomfortable my chest was shivering and full body get sweaty.i go near fan and relaxed for a while. But in morning I feel inadequate sleep not feeling well vertigo.

Male | 38

You may have some signs of indigestion, which is the result of gastritis when your stomach is having a difficult time digesting food. This may occur when you are eating fast or spicy food, which causes this. The chest shivering and sweaty sensation may be connected with your stomach feeling uncomfortable. Please try to eat less and don't keep away from spicy food.

I have a sudden pains near the belly button and right lower corner of the abdomen which is sharp and it comes suddenly in the evening .

Female | 18

Your symptoms suggest appe­ndicitis - an inflamed appendix. Pain starts sharply near the­ navel, then shifts to the lowe­r right abdomen. Fever, nause­a, vomiting often occur too. Act quickly! Appendicitis nee­ds urgent hospital treatment, maybe­ surgery. Delaying risks major complications. Head to the­ ER without delay if these signs match your condition.
