    Pain in my butt is making me feel old.

    Well tried to schedule a Dr app today. But can't confirm till tomorrow if my reg Dr is the right place to go or if I'm getting a direct referral. But anyways I'm 31 and feeling old. Got a royal pain in my butt and my best guess is hemroids....... or possibly worse. Either way this Sux since it will be the first potential issue I will need any kind of surgery for. Or a hand up my butt.

    Broken bones and stitches I'm used to though.

    Anyone out there that can give me some sort of heads up on what kind of tests I'm about to go through? PM if you don't want to comment in open. Since I'm not looking forward to anything going inside the EXIT only.

    What sort of pain? Are you bleeding? Typically roids are accompanied by bleeding. Rule of thumb is if the blood is red its roids and nothing serious, if the blood is brown its something internal and could be more serious. I've also experienced a type of anal cramping before that is no a lot of fun. It seemed to be brought on by the use of some back meds that I was taking along with eating spicy foods. Apparently the two didn't like each other.

    Yeah, I'm old enough to be past worrying about being embarrassed by this kind of stuff. Need more info. And no, unless there is a reason they will not stick a finger up your bunghole.

    Also if anyone out there has a family history of colon cancer, you're supposed to get checked out IIRC like 10 years before the age that the person directly related to you was diagnosed. I.E., my dad had it when he was 50, so I was overdue getting a colonoscopy a couple of years ago. Being embarrassed is better than being dead.

    Well I sit in an office chair hit and miss. Sometimes all day but not normally. So as for a real cause for whatever. No clue.

    Opbn. No bleeding at all. Just kinda feels like I'm sitting on an oval golf ball if that makes any sense. And painful when I sit down. Take it slow and kinda let it even out and I'm OK to sit. But still tinder. I have phantom crap needs that are annoying. Go. Sit. Nothing. So I assume a little pressure on the oll poop shoot is going on I guess. Idk. It Sux. Call early tomorrow to either get something scheduled at my normal DR. Or get the referral for who to get lined out with. But by the end of the day tomorrow something should be scheduled for somewhere. Just Sux. Never really felt like I was getting old till this.

    Sounds a little similar. We'll get real personal. Does it feel better after you have a BM? If so, it sounds like what I had. Wasn't a huge issue and just took some meds. From what I gathered it was similar to irritable bowel syndrome. It came and went. Went for me pretty much as soon as I stopped taking some meds. Spicy food did seem to aggravate it a little. I was told to lay off caffeine and some other stuff. Mine cleared up, but there was a list of things that you could do that I won't go into here....Some were pretty awful. LOL.

    Most likely the doc will refer you to a Gastroinstestinal specialist.

    Ok black death, i think you just need to go have a sit down with your doctor. I'm going to venture that treatments and tests will differ slightly from doc to doc and unless you talk to the man with the glove you won't know.


    On a side note... I'm glad to know this is a place you come to for help... On the wHOLE

    BM? As far as relief. Nothing gives it relief that I know of. When I first wake up in the morning I'm pretty good. Kinda tender. But otherwise good. As the day goes on more tender. And I know Saturday I didn't sit hardly at all and still real tinder by the end of the day. If ya want to get real personal I noticed a purple lump at the edge of my butt hole about a month ago. Thought it was a ingrown hair. Asked the wife to look at it. Yah odd question for the wife. Haha. Didn't think a lot about it. Now I've more recently noticed that when wyping I feel like my butt has kinda like vagina flaps or lips for lack of better discryption. Researching I did notice both of them deals fit with more inner roids. But I'm no specialist. Hopefully my regular Dr will just forward me along and save me my 20 bux with him.

    anal abscess or fistula. No I've never had one but did get a bad case of a passing IBS due to some strong anti-biotics.
    See your primary care doc and think of a happy place when they go digging for gold in there.

    Sorry Day. Didn't expect detailed stuff to end up in the open. Expected stuff like BT posted in the open.

    hmm, have you tried hemorrhoid cream on that? also, it might be time to look for a more comfortable office chair to sit in.

    I'm gonna go to the Dr and make sure its nothing more serious. Then figure out what to take / do.

    Sadly I'm gonna end up getting probed and I can't even claim it to be by aliens.

    Hope the receptionist was as cute as her voice.
    I've dealt with Sigmoidoscopy, the Vasal Response is uncomfortable to say the least...
    So I can be sympathetic about similar medical problems.

    But I can't help but point out that a message board about PAINTBALL is perhaps the last place to ever seek help about a medical condition.
    Y'know?

    Receptionists no. The nurse I talked to on the phone...... yup pretty sure I know which one she was. Mid 20s. athletic build. Brunette. And HOT!

    As for the medical deal on a paintball board. True. But I really expected a bunch of stuff like BT posted that would give everyone some humor. Really expected any legit topic conversation to end up in PM if it existed at all.

    As for medical deal. I learned a couple of things. A. Anyone that WANTS something shoved up there butt needs there head examined. B. Internal hemroids suck. But at least the Dr is pretty sure its a freak deal that will be corrected and no future issues. At least not due to having them right now.

    Rule 34 violation.

    Butt at least you didn't have the Proctologist ask if the co-ed intern class could witness the procedure. (pun intended)

    Nothing quite like being the focus of six college girls watching an old man having a rubber hose shoved up his backside, all crowded into an 8'X12' room. I'm not sure they could even get the door closed, but it was hard to tell being upside-down in the chair.

    As a medical procedure, a Colonoscopy/Prostate Exam is something almost every Male will have to go through at some point. It's not really something to be embarrassed about, it's just part of an annual medical checkup especially as you get older.

    (so get ready, kids. It'll happen to you, too)

    Rule 34? That a rule dealing with staying on subject? BT stayed on subject. Just in a humorous way.

    And Sux to be you that day. No I just had said DR. And his finger. Least there was lube. Haha.
