A member asked:

Im21 do hemorroids cause abdominal gas pain and dificuly to fart and flat stool i feel alot of preasure in my rectum is this cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not likely. : Hemorrhoids can cause rectal pain or pressure, problems passing stool or gas and bleeding. Rectal cancer at your age would be very unusual. If symptoms persist see a doctor. Soaking in a warm bath should help hemrrhoids as would stool softeners. See a physician if problems continue.
