Hemorrhoids? Protrusion?

Hi, friends.

I don't think this is the right section, but I don't know where to post this questione.

I have a problem and would like some advice. For a few years, I suffered from hemorrhoids with bleeding, sometimes profusely. Since I started doing two 2-liter enemas every morning, almost 40 years ago, to completely empty my colon before going out, the problem hasn't returned. For a few years now, every time I have a bowel movement, something comes out. I can't tell if it's a slight protrusion or hemorrhoids; I put it back in and everything's fine. The problem is when I do multiple enemas, if there's a bit of water left, or when we use a strap-on. This thing keeps coming out, I put it back in, and it comes out again, unless I sit down for at least an hour. I know I need to get checked out, but it bothers me a bit, and I'd like to know if you think this is normal.

While waiting to consult, if you are alone, you can try selfies with your smartphone.

Hemorrhoids can either be internal or external and are graded from grade 1 to grade 4 with grade 4 being the largest. Generally grade 1 and 2 don't require any treatment. What you are describing is not normal and you should make an appointment with a gastroenterologist or proctologist.

I echo what @RN1993 says. This could be a hemorrhoid or a rectal prolapse or something else entirely. I highly recommend seeing your primary care provider and going from there. Best of luck!
