My husband had laser surgery for grade 1 piles and a fissure two months ago but still bleeds around 10-15 drops with brown discharge every time he passes stool. He doesn't have constipation and never bled before the surgery. His stool test shows pus cells, occult blood, and RBCs. Should we be concerned about this?

View allI'm having some pretty bad anal pain that started a couple of days ago, and it came on out of nowhere. I noticed the area is a bit hard on one side, and it's really painful. It's making sitting and doing any tough tasks really difficult. Could you tell me what might be causing this and what I can do about it? I'm pretty uncomfortable and could really use some advice.
take rest & drink oral fluids.

I've been dealing with an anal fissure for the last three months, and in the past month, I've been using Smuth ointment after sitz baths and taking Cremaffin Plus at night. It seemed like things were getting better, with about 90% healed, but today I passed a hard stool and the tear happened again in the exact same spot. It's like history repeating itself, as it happened before in another direction but still in the same area. I'm really worried and wondering why this keeps occurring. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I should do?
It sounds like you are experiencing recurrent anal fissures despite the initial healing. To help prevent further tearing and promote healing, you can try using Anovate cream after each bowel movement and continue with sitz baths. Additionally, you can take a stool softener like Duphalac to prevent hard stools and reduce straining during bowel movements. Make sure to stay hydrated and include fiber-rich foods in your diet to help with bowel movements. If the issue persists, consult your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm dealing with a bad case of piles for about a week now, and it hasn't improved. I'm not dealing with any other medical issues at the moment. What would you suggest I do next?
Leg Pain Due to Cold Air Exposure _Possible Causes_ 1. _Cold-induced vasospasm_: Exposure to cold air from fans or ACs can cause blood vessels in your legs to constrict, leading to pain. 2. _Muscle cramps_: Cold air can also cause muscle cramps, especially in the legs. 3. _Poor circulation_: Reduced blood flow to the legs can contribute to pain, especially in cold environments. _Self-Care Measures_ 1. _Avoid direct exposure_: Try to avoid sitting directly under fans or ACs. 2. _Dress warmly_: Wear warm clothing, especially on your legs, when in cold environments. 3. _Stay hydrated_: Drink plenty of water to maintain blood flow and circulation. 4. _Stretch and move_: Regularly stretch and move your legs to improve circulation. _When to Seek Medical Attention_ 1. _Severe pain_: If pain is unbearable or worsens over time. 2. _Persistent pain_: If pain persists or recurs frequently. 3. _Other symptoms_: If you experience numbness, tingling, or weakness in your legs
