My life is fucked, trying to be objective as possible when writing this.>Liftfag, minor strength training>Work up to 305x4 @ 200 for chest press>Neato.jpg>Take a break for months, get back into it>Not even really pushing that hard, feel major pinch in back towards very end of workout>Nothing major, still finish workout eventually but lots of pain>History of hemorrhoids>Self-check in shower, little raised nub on ring. Consider myself lucky, think about maybe a week off.>Wake up that night, feel like I'm mid-shit.>Can feel it dangling, reach back and realize it's my ass.>Multiple, 2-3. 2 fingers width. Mental images of dugtrio are springing to mind while I fight wild pangs of panic.>Try a sitz. Water way too warm, don't realize/care. 15 minutes later. We are now closer to three fucking fingers in width.Tl;dw Lanced hemorrhoid for blood clot, 2 weeks later everything looks back to normal except one ridge and I have, uhh, regular discharge. This fucking sucks. This is the third time it's happened in four years and while this isnt the worst it's been, this is a degenerative issue and it's pretty awful as is.It feels arbitrary on outset, I've strained way harder on less weight and it wasn't anything like squats or deadlifts that would've put pressure on that area.I had actual aspirations to join the military. I scored in the 87th percentile for ASVAB but now I can't shoulder press 90 pounds without my asshole falling out of me.I don't see this getting better. This is the death keep of my chosen career. It's also an incredibly isolating problem cause you can't be public about it and it's hard to garner sympathy in general about it anywhere else.Even if it gets better now, it'll happen again.
