Hemorrhoids?
This is sort of embarrassing but here goes…
When I was around 11, I had a problem with constipation and I developed an external hemorrhoid. I never had it looked at by a doctor, because it’s never bothered me. Well, now I’m 17 and its still there. Yesterday it got a bit larger, because I guess I was slightly constipated. It’s still not bothering me, but I was just wondering if there is any chance it will go away on its own, or will I have to have it removed by a doctor? I’ve read that they can go away on their own with home treatments within a few weeks, but I’ve had it for 6 years and never treated it, so I don’t know…
I asked this question last night, and someone told me I need to change how I eat and exercise more. I don’t think that’s the answer. I get plenty of fiber and I am at a normal weight. I have not had a problem with constipation in a long time, I only get constipated once in a great while, usually when I’m so busy and stressed that I don’t drink enough water.

The swelling can go down (with home treatments) until the next flare up, but I don’t believe they can go away on their own. Chances are, if it’s something you can’t live with, you will probably want to have it removed or lanced at the doctor’s office.
Not only can they flare up if you’re constipated, put if you lift something heavy, are in childbirth, or if you stand for long periods of time.
Ay thats bad hey you really need to go see a doctor because that’s called piles in other words and it can be very dangerous and cause bleeding if you dont go see about it and if you leave it longer they would have to operate on you and thats even more sore! so please go see the doctor!
