A member asked:

Colorectal dr said i have fissures and hemeroids, 6 months later having rectal bleeding and pain, its sporadic. do i need to be seen again? or no?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Even: Ulcerative proctitis can cause intermittent symptoms. If you are comfortable with the diagnoses of fissures and hemorrhoids, you should continue to take your medication as prescribed. If not, you may want another GI's perspective.
