Diagnosed back in May with Ulcerative Proctitis. Had symptoms of suden urges at first but subsided to just blood and mucus, never pain or cramping or other symptoms.
Put on mesalamine 2 times a day, everything got better. Never got to my follow up due to be outside of the area. Ran out of the medication and after a few weeks the blood mucus problems came back.
No problem, Ill get to the doctor. Well 2 weeks ago I had a stint of D and started to get what i thought was an internal hemorrhoid.
Its only painful during and immediately after for 5 minutes. And I can feel the exact spot where it's 2 o'clock on my anus.
Pain during BM started off 6/10 but two days later was 8/10. Terrible. After getting a little better went to a general doc, and told him the story. He didnt observe external hemorrhoid. He examined internally and felt a large lump which he assumed was a hemorrhoid. After discussing being off my meds he decided it was probably inflammation and reordered mesalamine.
Problem is the pain is terrible again. I assume from his inspection. I couldnt insert the suppository. So I tried lube. Still no go and painful. i ended up cutting off about 1/3 and managed to insert. He said pain should go away after 2 days back on meds, Im just worried I wont get that far at this rate.
This is my first post and Im just looking to see if anyone has experienced something like this, has any suggestion, or feedback.
