Internal Hemorrhoids Treatment in Rogers, Arkansas
What are Internal Hemorrhoids?
Internal hemorrhoids develop inside the rectum by the anus
Unlike external hemorrhoids, internal hemorrhoids often don't cause much pain unless they're extremely swollen which leads to bleeding and uncomfortable bowel movements
Causes of Internal Hemorrhoids
Age is a leading factor for anyone over 50 to develop internal hemorrhoids, but several other factors can cause internal hemorrhoids.
An increase in pressure in the lower rectum causes straining, which leads to swollen veins in the anal canal. The main contributors to development of internal hemorrhoids include sitting for long periods of time (especially on the toilet), straining during bowel movements, diets with low fiber, chronic constipation or diarrhea, pregnancy, and obesity.
Symptoms of Internal Hemorrhoids
As previously mentioned, internal hemorrhoids often are painless until they become very swollen and reach the point where treatment is needed.
Internal hemorrhoids that become extremely swollen can "prolapse", extending outside of the anus when passing stool. At that point, prolapsed internal hemorrhoids can become immensely painful that often itch, burn, and bleed. Prolapsed internal hemorrhoids often retract back inside the anal canal after a bowel movement.
