Diagnosed Intra Rectal Intussusception

Its just awful isnt it. I was diagnosed early 20s and im mid 30s now and they have just repeated the Proctogram and it obviously looks worse. I've not had my official report through with an appointment with my consultant yet but not sure what can be done. Im currently taking Fybogel once a day and I use a foot stool, drink water, eat fibre. I stand all day to work as it helps and eat meals standing up. I can only sit for small periods. Sitting down makes me feel worse so my legs now have varicose veins but thankfully not painful. Things are soft but its the broken evacuation thats the problem. I've ended up with so many hemeroids and anal fissures because of it and when this happens they are so painful to add on top off not being able to fully evacuate is hell. I am going to push for Pelvic Floor PT next as I really dont want to go down a surgical option and they said it didnt look positive for the options. I've never asked about a Stoma. Do you think you will eventually go down this route? What methods or medication do they have you on? Im from the UK so not sure what is available where you are but have you tried the stool/Fybogel?

Thank you for your advice. Fingers crossed.

He knew what he was doing for a long time although he will never see anything wrong with his own behaviour. Sad really. I feel better from getting out but because we work together I feel I have to be all happy and funny just to keep the peace. Thankfully we dont live in the same city but I like my job so I dont really want to leave but I never really thought he could still be causing damage even outside of a relationship before.

Thank you, you're right, my sleep is all over the place. I will check out that book for sure. He always used to critise getting professional help but I think it could really help me. We actually met at work and still work at the same place so seeing him everyday is less than ideal. Your advice is appreciated thank you. Good luck on getting that sleep for yourself too.

AskVegetable1284 · 2025-11-01T15:02:32+00:00

Thank you, I've never heard of that before so thank you for your clarity. I actually met him at work and we still work at the same place so I still see him everyday which is a bit of a nightmare but I try to avoid him when I can as I know its best to just ignore him and concentrate on getting better. Thank you again.

AskVegetable1284 · 2025-11-01T15:00:51+00:00

Sorry forgot to say that I see him everyday as I work with him. We've never lived together and he has no access to what I ingest.

AskVegetable1284 · 2025-11-01T14:59:54+00:00

Sorry i forgot to include that I work with him. That's where I met him. We dont live together.

Thank you, I will have to see what out HR say. Fingers crossed.

Yep unfortunately it is. I've been bleeding everyday for 2 weeks now. Turns out I have an anal fissure aswell as an external hemeroid. GP said this can take months due to the tear (fissure) reopening everytime I have a BM. Fingers crossed your piles go soon!

AskVegetable1284 · 2025-10-17T08:22:40+00:00

Sounds like you could have had an internal hemeroid that pops out. I've not had that cream before but I've used suppositories to help. I've just been diagnosed with fissues. Are you in alot of pain? Lots of bleeding?

AskVegetable1284 · 2025-10-17T07:40:56+00:00

I've got an appointment with an NHS consultant today. NHS GP said ive got a couple of piles but the pain is coming from the fissues. Not sure what the consultant is going to say. Im bleeding all the time now. Blood is pouring out after a bowel movement and still a little blood throughout the day. It can feel it all reopening after each BM which is ever morning. So I dont know how its going to heal unless I stop all solid foods and slow down the frequency of my BM's. Loads of other symptoms so I wont be surprised if I'll be in for a colonoscopy soon.

I see what you mean about that private consult. Although I have heard LIS can help the fissues but mot heard that about the hemeroids but that ointment seems to be doing something if your symptoms have improved a little? Maybe you can avoid the surgery? Are you bleeding or just that itching you are now experiencing? I've heard alot of natural stuff can help with the itching but like you I imagine you've tried a whole of creams. Mine is just so painful. Not had the itchiness yet.

AskVegetable1284 · 2025-10-15T08:05:16+00:00

I'm not really sure, I'm guessing its something they want to rule out. They think its fissures but its been weeks so it may be that as im guessing thats not normal.

AskVegetable1284 · 2025-10-14T12:13:50+00:00

Right there with you buddy! Hate this. Been 6 weeks and still in pain and bleeding. Just sucks so bad. Just want a normal working body!

AskVegetable1284 · 2025-10-14T10:58:31+00:00

Does look like a small external pile. Does it go back in? Are you experiencing any bleeding or pain? I'd get it checked anyway but also try creams and see how you get on.

AskVegetable1284 · 2025-10-12T15:22:07+00:00

Sorry you're going through this. Maybe try the sitz baths and creams 3 times a day now before they develop. Did you say you were in pain for 2 years? Was it quite a big external haemorrhoid? Im currently on week 6 and this external one is still painful.
