Anal papilla?

[Guest guest]

I know this is a rather personal question to ask, but it is something

we are encountering.

Has anyone been diagnosed with Anal papilla? Last year my husband

was experiencing horrible hemroids. (he couldn't walk or sit when

they were at their worst) He went to a few doctors concerning them

and was told they needed treatment- possibly banding. So we

scheduled it. When the doctor went in to band them he found anal

papilla attached to his hemroids. Ouch! He suggested having the

papilla removed surgically. So we went and met with a general

surgeon. They said because my husband has Indeterminate Colitis they

won't opperate on his anus because there is a chance that he really

has crohn's, and if he has crohn's, there is a major chance that the

incisions/lacerations will never heal.

So, I am curious has anyone on the list with UC/IC/Crohn's

experienced hemroids like this before- and if so what kind of

treatment were you offered (and did it help)? Does anyone have the

anal papilla- and if so treatment? Success? etc. The heroids calm

down eventually, but he will have weeks of horrible pain. We are

hoping to find a more long term solution to both issues (heroids and

the papilla).

Thanks for your time,
