It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. Your current symptoms may not be due to hemorrhoids and it would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!

You don't mention whether bowel movements are painful. Possibilities include anal fissure,a thrombosed hemorrhoid( which is very painful), or perianal dermatitis. Do keep hydrated. Bathe in hot water or apply hot water compresses to anus a few times per day& apply anusol. Glycerin rectal suppositories avoid painful BM's. For accurate diagnosis and best care see a proctologist or colorectal surgeon
