 [ Symptoms ] is any exercise safe while taking cipro how long after 30 days of treatment should i wait before working with weights  i have been working out for the last 2 years and find myself in decent shape for a 50 year old male was starting a hardcore workout plan but have stopped i have been having some urologic issues and after having multiple scans done the doctors are not seeing anything so my doctor has put me on cipro for 30 days he specifically told me not to lift anything heavy due to possible tendon rupture and from what i see the risk continues even for several months after completing the medication [ Disease ] sorry to hear you are going through this from your description it sounds like you are experiencing moderate constipation that is causing a hemorrhoid to flare up occasionally a hemorrhoid is a swollen vein in the rectum a hard piece of stool can basically scratch this swollen vein and cause it to bleed slightly frequently hemorrhoids also feel itchy and painful perhaps this is why your doctor gave you a suppository to try suppositories often are prescribed to treat the symptoms of hemorrhoids it sounds like you are doing everything right in terms of eating a high fiber diet and drinking plenty of fluids because only the tip of your stool is hard it makes me think maybe you are not noticing the urge to have a bowel movement and are holding stool in your rectum too long even though you are having a bowel movement every day you might try going to the bathroom a bit more frequently to see if you perhaps need to have a bowel movement but just are not feeling the sensation to go however do not strain needlessly in an attempt to force a bowel movement that will just make any hemorrhoid situation worse as long as you are not allergic to any medications you also might try an over the counter hemorrhoid medication to see if it helps shrink those swollen veins so at least the bleeding goes away best of luck to you this is what worked for me as mentioned above fibrous food i included boiled okratwice a week for dinner apple daily spinach i am an indian and i already love indian plain palak recipie dried plumspitted prunes 2liters of water a day  i follow this since i first came across this siuation walking min of 30 mins a day i also felt stress tension has played a role in causing thisto me atleast i have the same problem which lead me to your thread while i have had issues around constipation currently i have at least three bm is a day and yes this hard piece is scraping against my hemorrhoid and causing pain and sometimes a little bleeding i would think the answer might lie in what we are eating the combinations of food at each meal and how they digest this issue doenst always happen for me but it is often
