A thrombosed or strangulated hemorrhoid can be a painful condition where a blood clump forms within a swollen blood vessel in the rectum. External hemorrhoids are also found outside of the rectum.
Thrombosed or strangulated hemorrhoids occur when a blood clump forms within a swollen blood vessel in the rectum. In this condition, the blood supply is cut off to the hemorrhoid and it shrivels back up and begins bleeding. This kind of hemorrhoid has more chance of developing a clot than an external hemorrhoid, which forms within the rectum. External hemorrhoids are the most common types of hemorrhoids.
Thrombosed or strangulated hemorrhoids are usually painful and may be accompanied by bleeding. They are very itchy and will often cause burning during bowel movements. When a person with this condition suffers from severe pain during bowel movements, they may be suffering from this condition.
Treatment for this condition is not always the same as treatment for other types of hemorrhoids. Treatments range from using creams, suppositories and ointments to surgery and laser therapy.
If you experience any pain while having bowel movements or when you lie down, you should seek medical attention right away. A doctor can take blood samples for testing and then determine what is causing your problem. This process may take hours or days. Once a doctor has diagnosed your problem, he will prescribe medications. The most common medications for this condition include Aloe Vera or alfalfa-leaf extract.
The second most common type of treatment is surgery. Surgery is a popular option for people who have suffered from this condition for a long time and who have not responded well to topical medication. However, surgery can also result in scarring of the area. Many surgeons do not recommend it for people who suffer from acute hemorrhoids.
Laser therapy is another option. Laser therapy is a treatment that uses pulses of light to remove damaged tissue and reduce the amount of fluid in the veins. Because there are less tissue and less fluid, there is less chance of a clot forming.
Hemorrhoids are a very painful condition, but they are treatable. Talk to your doctor if you think you might have this condition or have suffered from this condition before.
People have different symptoms associated with this condition. Some people experience an itching sensation or burning while others experience pain in the anal area. If you experience severe pain during bowel movement or bleeding when you are going to have a bowel movement, you should talk to your doctor as soon as possible.
If you find yourself experiencing severe pain during bowel movements, especially if you have experienced this before and found it difficult to pass stools, you should immediately seek treatment. Anal bleeding and inflammation can indicate serious internal bleeding or infection.
Severe pain and inflammation of the anal area can indicate cancer of the blood vessels or even tumors. These conditions are very serious and you should go to the hospital for medical attention as soon as possible.
Hemorrhoids can become more than just uncomfortable because they can affect the bladder. Many people suffer from this condition after a pregnancy or after they have had a baby. They can make passing stools hard and painful.
Hemorrhoids can occur anywhere in the body but are most commonly found in the anus. The most common area for a hemorrhoid is on the front wall of the rectum. If left untreated, the hemorrhoid can become prolapsed, meaning it has protruded out of the anus.
Bleeding that occurs around the rectum may be a sign that there is some type of anemia in the patient and may require treatment. Hemorrhoids can cause blood clots that can travel to the lungs.
Hemorrhoids can be very painful and even bleeding in the toilet bowl is a sign of serious problems. Your doctor will often recommend surgery to be performed by a qualified surgeon. There are surgical options that are available to relieve the pain.
Surgery can also be performed to remove the hemorrhoid but the recovery time is usually long and sometimes requires multiple visits to the doctor's office. Surgery can also be expensive so surgery is not always an option for people who cannot afford surgery.
