Hemorrhoid symptoms
Hemorrhoid symptoms are divided into internal and external sources. Internal hemorrhoids cannot cause cutaneous pain. They can bleed, prolapse and cause perianal itching and irritation. Internal hemorrhoids can cause perianal pain by prolapsing and causing spasm of the sphincter complex around the hemorrhoids. This spasm results in discomfort while the prolapsed hemorrhoids are exposed. The discomfort is relieved with reduction. Internal hemorrhoids can also cause acute pain when incarcerated and strangulated. Again, the pain is related to the sphincter complex spasm.
Strangulation with necrosis may cause more deep discomfort.
When these catastrophic events occur, the sphincter spasm often causes concomitant external thrombosis. External thrombosis causes acute cutaneous pain. If you have any of these hemorrhoid symptoms please read more about What is Venapro?
