Back Pain With Hemroids?

By admin

About a month ago, I noticed it was getting more and more painful to go to number 2. Then noticed it was bleeding really bad, and I went to the doctor and she confirmed it. They're internal hemroids, but just for the past few weeks, after going to the bathroom I have this major back pain. It's located near the "kidneys" I guess thats where it is. That's what I was told. Is this normal? I have had medications but nothing works. Any suggestions? Thanks so much!

I think they are two different things, actually. If the doc hasn't done any lab work to check and see what's going on with your kidneys, then perhaps you pulled some lower back muscles straining at stool while constipated. However, hemorrhoids and muscle pain, or whatever pain don't sound connected unless you have pulled muscles pooping. Make sure to take care of the high fiber, more fluid intake in your diet and the hemorrhoids will stop being such an issue. If that stops and the back pain stops then perhaps they were connected. If you are following your hemorrhoid treatment properly and you are still having pain, then something else is going on.
