I'm 22 and have been dealing with external hemorrhoids for over a month now. I've tried controlling my diet and exercising regularly, but whenever I have to go to the bathroom, they pop out, and then they go back on their own after a while. It's really uncomfortable. How can I get rid of them for good? And is this common at my age?

Developing external hemorrhoids at 22 is uncommon, but not unheard of; factors like genetics, constipation, poor diet, and inadequate exercise may contribute; to manage and potentially remove hemorrhoids permanently, consider: increasing fiber intake, staying hydrated, exercising regularly, avoiding prolonged sitting, and practicing good bowel habits;

I've got this lump near my anus that just showed up suddenly about three days ago. Since then, I've been experiencing chills and fever, but the fever and chills seem to get better when I use NSAIDs like diclofenac. I'm really worried about what this could be. Can you help me understand what's going on?

Hey, I've been dealing with a painful lump right on the outside of my anus for three days now. It's super sore when I touch it, but oddly enough, I don't really notice it when I go to the bathroom or throughout the day. I've been using Proctosedyl Cream, but it hasn't helped so far. Any idea what could be going on or what I should try next?

You should consult a doctor, a general surgeon, for a proper evaluation and diagnosis, as the painful lump could be a thrombosed external hemorrhoid, an anal abscess, or another condition requiring medical attention, and they may prescribe a different treatment or perform a minor procedure to relieve your symptoms.

I'm considering laser surgery for piles but I'm not sure if it's better than the regular surgery Is it more expensive and does it have any major benefits I'm really confused about whether to go for it or not

Laser piles surgery is minimally invasive with less pain and faster recovery but is generally more expensive. Both are effective; the choice depends on severity and personal preference.
