rectal bleeding after lifting?

[jmhester1956]

Does this ever happen to you guys when have a really intense session like heavy leg press? I did a search here and there was one thread about a guy who had it. Lot's of web info, too.
I'm curious if the powerlifters have this problem or hemroids from straining so much. I just had a full gastric workup and see the doc tomorrow, so no worries.
Have you guys have ever experienced this? Seems pretty common if you believe the web. Any remedies you guys have come up with?

I would never consider rectal bleeding common among healthy individuals.

How much bleeding are you talking?

I get a hemorrhoid from time to time, but any significant amount of blood in the stool is considered a medical emergency.

Of course. I was just curious if it happened to you guys sometimes. Apparently, it's fairly common: http://www.livestrong.com/article/39...heavy-weights/

How about this: If blood COME OUT OF YOUR ASSHOLE after you lift weights, something is wrong. Period.

Whatever you do, JM, PLEASE, no pictures.

If this is not hemorrhoids, then you should definitely make a visit to the doctor. If you're not sure, visit the doctor.

Just no pictures.

I was hoping I would not see pics when I opened this thread....but I still had to look.

But either way, it doesn't sound good.

Anyone else see that squat picture where the guy is hemorrhaging out of his ass?? its one of the most disturbing things I have ever seen

Maybe we'd be more helpful if you posted fewer threads with the intelligence caliber of HEY GUYS I'M SHOOTING BLOOD OUT MY ASSHOLE WHEN I LIFT SHOULD I BE WORRIED?
