What should not be done when using Cialis?

Q: I am thinking about using Cialis while rolling.Anyone ever tried it? Email me directly if you want to remain anonymous. I am very interested to know if there are any health consequences.”Rolling” is not getting stoned. It has to do with another substance that, if named, will cause this question to be deleted. It was legal once and used to treat depression. Then people started using it for fun and it was banned. It is commonly used at ‘raves.’ It has no X in the word, but has been called that. Now, I really want to know the answer, so please don’t report this question. Thanks!

A: So i’m not sure what “rolling” is, but Cialis is a vasodilator and can be very dangerous if it’s not respected. Find out what “rolling” does to your blood pressure. If it lowers your blood pressure, then mixing it with Cialis is very dangerous.Any illegal substance used with Cialis could also be very dangerous. Illegal substances aren’t controlled and unless you watch it being made or make it yourself – it can contain anything.

Hemorrhoids & Cialis – Is there a connection?

Q: I don’t have ED, but I have occasionally used Cialis or Viagra when I’m not feeling 100% confident with a new sexual partner. I have had an occasional hemorrhoid condition which brings me to this forum. I’m wondering if there might be a connection between the drugs used to treat ED (i.e. Cialis) and hemorrhoids.Let me share my experience. About two years ago, I took some Cialis and within a couple days developed my first known hemorrhoid condition. I thought it was just a coincidence. After adjusting my diet and adhering to other remedies the hemorrhoid disappeared. Everything has been relatively normal since then. However, 6 days ago, I took a Cialis pill and within 24 hours, my hemorrhoid condition was back. This time the hemorrhoid is a bit more pronounced and it appears it has ruptured since there has been some moderate bleeding (which is freaking me out). Is it a coincidence again or do you think there might be a connection?

A: I hope this helps, I wouldn’t take too much notice of the other answers you might get.Haemorrhoids (often known as Piles) are enlarged and engorged blood vessels in or around the back passage (anus). These may be associated with pain, bleeding, itching and feeling as if a lump or bump is hanging down. SymptomsYou may notice a pain or ache around the anus and lower bowel (rectum), which can be really quite severe. There may be itching of the area. There may be bleeding from the back passage. This will be bright red blood, not usually mixed in with the motion, but often seen on the toilet paper. There is often a feeling of something coming down, or a bulge or lump at the anus. If a haemorrhoid at the outside of the anus gets a blood clot in it (thrombosed external pile) it leads to a particularly tender, hardish lump. CausesHaemorrhoids are very common. They are said to be more common in countries where the diet has traditionally been more processed and low in fibre. The main contributory causes are those things that cause us to raise the pressure in the abdomen. This causes the blood vessels to swell and become engorged. It seems that the people most at risk of developing haemorrhoids are those who have more causes for raised abdominal pressure, such as: Those chronically straining with constipation. After or during pregnancy. Here, the baby may actually press on the main blood vessel that returns blood to the heart (the vena cava). Overweight people. People with heavy lifting jobs. DiagnosisMost episodes of trouble from haemorrhoids come and go quite quickly. If simple measures do not help or the problem is lasting, keeps returning or worsening, then you should see your doctor, especially if you have any other associated symptoms eg weight loss; change of bowel habit; slime (mucus) in the motions; darker, changed blood mixed in with the stools. Your doctor will ask a few questions and is likely to examine you and may want to feel inside the anus with a gloved finger. Sometimes he will look inside with a metal instrument. This enables him or her to confirm the diagnosis, and to rule out other, more serious problems such as cancer. TreatmentIt is usually best, with haemorrhoids, to get by with the least treatment possible, as even after the most extensive treatments they may still return. Many times they will settle down over a matter of days without any treatment. Cream or suppositories (bullet-shaped tablets to be inserted into the anus) may be bought over the counter, or your doctor may prescribe one. These soothe itching and pain, and cause swelling and bleeding to diminish. Cold compresses, even ice can be helpful. If you do not get better with these approaches, your doctor may ask a specialist to see you who may: Put little rubber bands round the haemorrhoids, which will cause them to shrivel and wither away. Inject a substance into the haemorrhoids which causes them to wither away (sclerotherapy). Cut away the problem, usually under a general anaesthetic. PreventionHaemorrhoids are very common, and will occur anyway, but, as implied above, useful aspects of prevention are: Avoid becoming overweight, and lose weight if you are. Eat a high fibre diet. Exercise regularly.
