TMI Alert... Piles?

[Zebraa]

This is actually on behalf of my sister who isn't pregnant...

after she has been to the toilet she has bleeding, but she says it's more than just a drop and and her bum is sore (inside). She is worried it's something serious due to the amount of blood. She said it's about 3 big drops and sometimes more.

Anyone else experienced this?

I have piles and bleed when I go to the toilet. You can get cream for them that normally soothes the pain and itchiness and shrinks them up

She doesn't have itchiness, just a sharp pain when passing stools.

Do you mind if i ask if you had a lot of blood?

It varies really, there have been times where the toilet paper has been covered in it and other times where it's just a little bit.
Mine started when I was pregnant last time, and the first time I bled so much I thought I was having mc so rushed to the hospital
If it's alot, maybe a trip to the docs is best. They see it all the time. Might not be anything to worry about, but better to get checked. A family member of mine has IBS and bleeds a hell of alot....

She should go and get it checked in case it is something else. I was assumed to have pregnancy piles and it turned out to be rectal cancer. This is very unusual in women and in under fifties but bowel cancer as a whole is less unusual in young women.

It's not likely that this is the case but it's worth a little embarrassment. If she'd rather worry than have a finger up her bum you need to tell her she is being a silly cow .
