I have internal hem and a possible fissure that might be healing up. I saw a doctor about itseveral weeks ago and he told me to start taking 6 teaspoons of a fiber suppliment daily, increase fiber through my diet and gave me an ointment. Hesaid if it did not go away I might consider a surgery to cut (?!?!) my spincter or something...

The pain never went away, but for some of my bms there was no bleeding. (before there was a significant amount of blood on the toilet paper) Today I had a bm that caused more bleeding than I have ever seen. Sorry about tmi, but the first while was a smear of blood, so much I took out a mirror...again sorry here!....and there was still blood on my bum, like droplets, second whipe was also a smear.

I have two questions.....should I go back to the doctor or wait to see what happens during the next bm? I think I may have held it a bit too long and sat on the toilet seat too long..

Also, what foods seem to help and what foods seem to hurt? I am on ww and have about 10-15 lbs. to go, so low cal low fat foods would be good.

Thanks for your help!
