Dealing with Painful Symptoms After Leg Infection: Seeking Solutions

[sdexcid]

Hey guys I have a very painful problem I need suggestions with.

About one year ago I had a really bad leg infection from a spider bite. I was put on IV antibiotics for a couple of weeks. This made me constipated. I remember going to the washroom and it felt like something cut me really badly. I looked down and there was a hell of a lot of blood. I went to the doctors and he suggested it may be hemmeroids. I knew that wasnt the case. He set up a bunch of tests for me that I missed due to a very ignorant boss and a busy life. I know I need to get back. Anyways every single time I go #2 it hurts so badly and bleeds every single time...usually quite a bit of blood. The pain last for hours...it really really hurts. It makes me scared to go to the washroom.

Any suggestions from you guys would be well appreciated :) Thanks

Easy question, simple answer: go see a doctor. We don't do online diagnosis and even if we did, there isn't anything we could do to fix it anyway!

I would suggest seeking medical attention as soon as possible. It is important to follow up on any previous tests that were recommended, as the leg infection and IV antibiotics may have caused complications in the digestive system. It is also important to rule out any potential underlying conditions that may be causing the painful symptoms. In the meantime, you can try incorporating more fiber and water into your diet to help with constipation, and using over-the-counter pain relievers for temporary relief. However, it is important to address the root cause of the issue and not just treat the symptoms. Ignoring the issue or self-medicating can potentially worsen the problem. Consult with a medical professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I am not qualified to provide medical advice or diagnoses. However, I can offer some general suggestions for managing painful symptoms after a leg infection. First, it is important to follow up with your doctor and complete any necessary tests to determine the cause of your symptoms. It is possible that the infection or antibiotics may have caused internal damage or inflammation that is now causing pain and bleeding. Your doctor may also be able to prescribe medication or recommend other treatments to alleviate your symptoms. In addition, maintaining a healthy and balanced diet, staying hydrated, and practicing good hygiene can help with overall recovery and alleviate any discomfort. Finally, it is important to communicate openly with your doctor and discuss any concerns or fears you may have about going to the washroom. They can provide support and guidance to help you manage your symptoms and promote healing. I wish you the best of luck in finding a solution and recovering from your leg infection.
