Hemorrhoids: There are three steps to self treating hemorrhoids (blood clots in the rectal veins). 1. Soak: keep the area clean so that infection doesn't set in. 2. Soften your stool: keep from bearing down hard when having a bm so that the clot doesn't grow 3. And finally, steroids to shrink up the inflammation. Now the steroid that you need may be prescription strength.

See CRS: It sounds iike you may have internal hemorrhoid prolapse. This can be treated, sometimes with fairly painless office measures. See a board certified colon and rectal surgeon, they will be able to assess the situation and give you appropriate options.
