Hemorrhoids Symptoms – An A to Z guide to understanding more
The most common signs of hemorrhoids are traces of blood when you pass a stool, pain, mucus and itching.
External hemorrhoids
The most painful of all hemorrhoids is the external hemorrhoids which can be felt as lumps. The blood solidifies and produces purpul lumps which become hard, painful and itchy. The doctors like to all this the thromboses hemorrhoids which is just another way of saying swollen and external
Internal hemorrhoids
This is the most common of all hemorrhoids. One day you perfectly fine and the next you see blood on the toilet paper. I was a teenager and if having periods was not complicated enough I was bleeding when I went to the toilet. In this day and age our minds race with all sorts of conditions. We are so used to hearing and seeing nightmares relating to our health that this shocking experience can really change a person. I used to be a bubbly teenager with more friends then I could remember their names. But this one symptom kept me locket in the toilet for hours. Not wanting to talk to anyone and worry changed me over night.
Internal hemorrhoids itching
Internal hemorrhoids can produce a mucus which if your not aware of can be frighting. The mucus tends to be clear and slimy. This mucus is the main cause of the itchy feeling you get.
Large hemorrhoids tend to poke you and the bigger they are the bigger the itching.
Internal hemorrhoids pain
The pain from internal hemorrhoids can be relentless. The pain should be an aching or mild sharp pain. Anything like a strong sharp pain may be a sign that the hemorrhoid is having problems with its supply of blood [strangulated hemorrhoid]. In this case seek emergency medical treatment. The pain will only get worse. If unsure seek advice.
Warning!!
The biggest misdiagnosis of colon, rectal, or anal cancer by doctors is hemorrhoids. If you have any history of cancer or are over 50 then you must seek medical treatment immediately.
