A member asked:

I had a hemorrhoid when i was pregnant a year ago and it doesn't go away. it gets quite sensitive every now and then, how do i get rid of it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Needs Rx: An external hemorrhoid is a dilated blood vessel that has prolapsed through the anal canal and gets trapped producing pain and bleeding. It is necessary for you to see a MD for evaluation and treatment be it medication or surgery if needed. Hemorrhoids are a legitimate and literal "pain in the rear".
