I need to go but it hurts. my stool is hard. i think i am constipated. it is ready to come out. i think i may have hemrroids as well. what can i do?

Suppository: Get an over the counter suppository to help this hard stool out and try a laxative such as miralax (polyethylene glycol). You should see a GI doc to discuss your chronic constipation.
