I take huge poops...I wouldn't be surprised if it tore a bit on the way out.
I've been trying to cut back. Baby wipes sound like a good idea.
Not sure...it might be slightly raised.

On a similar weird note, the past couple months there has been very minimal blood when I wipe. :hs:
No pain, discomfort, etc. What freaks me out is my mom's bout with colon cancer. Going to get a colonoscopy this summer just for good measure.

More fibers if you're straining and have hard stools.

Get it checked out so you can stop self-diagnosing. I would be doing the same thing you're doing under these circumstances :hs: Be good to yourself. Try not to say anything to your family until you know what's up. o:

Well, it's recommended that children of colon cancer patients get their first colonoscopy after their 21st bday. I just turned 21.
I'm strongly suggesting that my sisters (24 and 27) get one soon as well.
