Excellent plan: You've put together an excellent treatment plan. Increase your fluid intake (especially water), and get on a high fiber diet. Eat plenty of fruits and veggies, whole grain breads, a big bowl of popcorn every day. If symptoms not improving or pain worsens or persists, then see your doctor.

If there is small amounts of bright red blood on toilet paper after wiping bottom do I need to be concerned? Have had hemorrhoids after child birth 9years ago, have reoccurred every now and then. Doctor can see hemorrhoid now and fissures.

I've seen my primary twice now about it. They did a digital rectal exam once and an anoscope and said I have bleeding hemorrhoids. I noticed a lot of blood in the toilet today (like filled the bowl bright red) and I'm scared. My doc isn't worried?
