I'm really worried about my wife's health. She's been dealing with these severe bleeding hemorrhoids for over three years now, but in the last week, the bleeding has been really bad. It's a tough situation because we can't opt for surgery right now with our baby being just four months old. We're planning to have the surgery in May when our older son has his school break. Until then, do you have any advice on how we can manage or stop the bleeding? Were really concerned about the amount of blood she's losing.

I'm a 25-year-old male and I'm really worried I might have hemorrhoids. I've been noticing a few symptoms lately and it's been quite unsettling for me. Is it possible to treat this with just medications and avoid surgery?
Hemorrhoids can often be managed and cured with medications and lifestyle changes, avoiding surgery; to alleviate symptoms, try stool softeners (psyllium), fiber supplements, topical creams (hydrocortisone, witch hazel), pain relievers (acetaminophen), and warm sitz baths; make lifestyle changes like increasing fiber intake, drinking plenty of water, exercising regularly, avoiding straining during bowel movements, and managing constipation;
