Anal penetration before complete relaxation can be the "too much tension" that causes hemorrhoids. Other causes include chronic anal muscular tension, constipation, and generalized stress. You may not be aware of this, but many people are chronic holders of tension in the muscles surrounding their anus, which can be quite an uncomfortable condition. (This is really no joke if it happens to you ...)
If you have experienced new hemorrhoids, do not allow any anal penetration by someone else (at all) until you’ve healed. Most health care providers recommend "sitz baths" - baths where you soak your anus - two times a day for one to two weeks (depends on how quickly you heal). Gentle massage of the anal opening during the bath may improve blood circulation and healing. Other techniques as you are healing include gentle anal massage with lubricants and latex or polyurethane gloves (so you’re less likely to tear the skin with a hangnail), along with meditation focused on relaxing the pelvic floor muscles 📌not on the anal sex
