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'm experiencing this strange pain in my bottom when I sit for a long time. It really burns, but interestingly, when I stand, run, or sleep, the pain goes away. I don't feel any pain or see blood when I go to the toilet, although I am dealing with a little constipation. There's no blood or pus in my stool either. Some people are telling me it might be piles, others say it could be fissures or maybe even a fistula. I'm really confused and would appreciate some guidance on what this might be.
