A member asked:
Hi, im a teenager and for a while i've been having incomplete bowel movements and a swollen anus. but no bleeding, could this be hemorrhoids or not?

Yes, possibly: Sounds like simple constipation (eating your fruits and vegetables?) with straining causing engorgement of your external hemorrhoids, thus no bleeding (yet!). Try more fiber, more water, some exercise and stool softeners also might be helpful. If this problem persists beyond these simple measures, discuss it with your health provider.
