I'm dealing with pretty painful 3rd degree external hemorrhoids. I'm really hoping to avoid surgery if possible, and I'm curious if there are any medicines or treatments that can actually help shrink them?

View allHey, 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.

Had fissure surgery 5 days ago and noticing yellow discharge on the gauze pad is mucous discharge normal after this type of procedure? Just a bit worried since it's my first time dealing with this
A small amount of mucous or serous discharge (yellowish, watery fluid) on the gauze pad after anal fissure surgery is generally normal as part of the healing process. This type of drainage is often present for a few days to a week as the wound heals. However, it's important to monitor for signs of infection, such as increased pain, redness, swelling, or pus. If you are concerned about the discharge or have any other concerns, it's best to contact your doctor or surgeon for advice
