Hemorrhoidal swelling and bleeding

2017-11-27 20:52:42
I've have what I believe to be hemorrhoid, that is the size of a head of a toothbrush or a little smaller, since last Monday. I was ill with the flu Tuesday into Wednesday. Starting Thursday morning, I have been using Preparation H gel and wipes/pads. The pain has reduced to next to nothing, but the swelling has remained, as has the off and on bleeding.
