What is hemorrhoids?
Hemorrhoids referred to in medicine include internal hemorrhoids, external hemorrhoids, and mixed hemorrhoids. It is a chronic disease of one or more soft venous clusters formed by varicose venous plexus at the bottom of the anus and rectum and anal mucosa. Usually when you continue to exert force during defecation, the intravenous pressure here will increase repeatedly, and the vein will swell. If you have hemorrhoids, the walls of the swollen and twisted veins in the anus become very thin, so they are easily broken during defecation. Then how to get rid of hemorrhoids without surgery by Chinese medicine, let’s see as below.
1. Symptoms of internal hemorrhoids
Because it is located above the dentate line of the anal canal, patients with internal hemorrhoids usually do not feel pain. But because internal hemorrhoids invade the fecal discharge channel, when defecation, especially when the hard feces are drained, the feces are likely to scratch the internal hemorrhoids and cause stool bleeding. Bleeding caused by internal hemorrhoids is bright red and more, and sometimes appears jet-like.
In addition, the internal hemorrhoids may also be pushed out by the feces and leak out of the anus, causing symptoms such as uncleanliness after the stool and a feeling of bulging. Due to the uncomfortable defecation, some patients will subjectively resist defecation, which can gradually lead to the failure of defecation reflex, accompanied by difficulty in defecation.
2. Symptoms of external hemorrhoids
External hemorrhoids appear below the dentate line, where the sensory nerves are strong, and there is often obvious pain. However, external hemorrhoids do not invade the defecation channel, so it is rare to be rubbed and bleeding by the stool.
In addition, poor blood flow in the skin of external hemorrhoids can cause symptoms such as perianal lumps, anal discomfort, dampness, and itching.
3. Symptoms of mixed hemorrhoids
The so-called mixed hemorrhoids, that is, varicose veins that cross the dentate line of the anal canal, have the characteristics of both internal and external hemorrhoids, so the symptoms of both can appear.
However, it should be noted that because the symptoms of hemorrhoids are very similar to colorectal cancer, colon polyps, and colorectal mucosal prolapse, it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish. When symptoms are first discovered, no matter what kind of condition, they need to be distinguished by anorectal doctor.
