Hemorrhoid is not a life threatening disease………Unless left untreated!

Ever heard of Thrombosed hemorrhoid? There are different forms of hemorrhoids and Thrombosed hemorrhoid is amongst the most severe forms of hemorrhoids. Thrombosed hemorrhoids form a blood clot inside the anal canal or outside the rectum area, both in case of internal or external haemorrhoids. They differ in size from being very small to as large as a golf ball in most severe cases.

When do Thrombosed hemorrhoids occur? Any guesses?

Well, we all have sacs lining on the anal canal which are filled with blood. These sacs get damaged due to strain during bowel movements. The strain in the rectal area can also be caused due to constipation, diarrhea, anal intercourse, pregnancy or any other chronic medical conditions. Blood clots are developed when the strains increase.

Two forms of thrombosed hemorrhoid……… internal and external.

Internal thrombosed hemorrhoids cannot be seen or sensed easily unless they prolapsed and extend beyond the rectal area. How will you know that you have got internal thrombosed hemorrhoid?

Fresh red blood in the stool, on the toilet bowl or toilet paper…………..Do not intend to make you feel uncomfortable, my Friend. These are the symptoms which you have to look for, when in doubt that you have got internal thrombosed hemorrhoid.

External thrombosed hemorrhoids can be easily observed, felt or even touched. Patients may also experience the following: itching, inflammation and pain besides bleeding in the stool, in the toilet pot and/or toilet paper.

Complex diagnosis…….

Doctors find it difficult to diagnose, when a hemorrhoid can develop into dangerous thrombosed hemorrhoid. Although the exact cause of thrombosed hemorrhoid is not clear, it is generally observed in pregnant ladies, people who eat junk food and drink less fluids or even people following healthy lifestyle developed this kind of hemorrhoid.

All of this has definitely increased your inquisitiveness……… isn’t it? You are now eager to know the treatments for thrombosed hemorrhoids in order to find instant relief and be healthy again.

After thorough examination, to ensure that you have thrombosed hemorrhoid, your doctor will offer the following treatment options:

• Over-the-counter creams and ointments for prolonged relief during the night or when at work

• Hemorrhoidectomy (to be used as the last resort) to remove them by surgery depending on your case
