Hi all:
Developed a hemorrhoid last night, which was surprising as everything in that region has been great. Applied Prep-H, and this afternoon in the shower I discovered it's now much less swollen but with an indentation in the centre. (Pre-H typically gets rid of a hemorrhoid for me in 1-2 days unless I'm doing really poorly.) From this indentation has been blood (not gushing, but enough to stain clothing before I noticed it) and now a clear discharge.
Can this still be a hemorrhoid or are we in cyst or fistula territory now? I have a GI appointment 12 days from now and will ask him, but I'm curious to know what all of you have to say. Thanks in advance!
