When the hemorrhoid that is the swelling on the rectum
and the anus can be seen with the naked eye, the condition
is referred to as external hemorrhoids. The causes
of external hemorrhoids are the same as internal
hemorrhoids, the only difference being the fact
that the external variety is located a bit on the
outer side.
The common causes
of hemorrhoids include straining to pass bowel
and thus injuring the veins in the rectum (because
of this people who have constipation tend to suffer
more from this disease than others), sitting or standing
in one position for many hours, and weak rectal valves
or the veins. However there are also a few differences
between internal and external hemorrhoids. While though
the internal type can cause a lot of problems, but
the condition does not still lead to any other medical
complication. The same cannot be said about external
hemorrhoids. Because they sometimes lead to a condition
that is known as thrombosed hemorrhoids. This happens
when the size of the swelling becomes exceptionally
large and this leads to sever pain that may last for
a while too. Thrombosed
hemorrhoids also cause severe bleeding. It also
comes with a lot of irritation and itching.
External Hemorrhoids Treatment
So watch out for these conditions and immediately
seek medical treatment. Though a larger section of
the senior population suffers from hemorrhoids, but
many do not seek treatment. And some of them are even
unaware that it is hemorrhoid that is causing the
symptoms.
But when the condition becomes complicated, it is
essential to seek treatment.

hemorrhoid treatments such as Heal

eliminate the condition fast, while removing pain
and itching associated with hemroids
Difference Between Internal And External Hemorrhoids
The main perceptible difference between the two is
in the fact that while internal hemorrhoids are not
visible to the naked eye, that is not the case with
the external type. Otherwise as mentioned above, the
symptoms are the same – it still pains, it still
bleeds,
and it still itches. The mucus may also come out in
both the varieties. There is also the perpetual feeling
that bowel might need to be passed, though this is
not the case.
External hemorrhoid is in a way better than internal
hemorrhoids, because here at least the person who
has the disease can see the reason for the symptoms.
And then he knows that something is wrong and decides
to seek medical help. So the percentage of people
seeking medical help is more in external hemorrhoids.
Sometimes external hemorrhoid is also more painful
than the internal type because the skin around the
anus is very sensitive. Then external
hemroids also at times create clots within the
anus (this too happens more in those who suffer from
constipation or diarrhea) and this too enhances the
pain. Sometimes the vein too cracks under intense
strain and this is another reason why there is so
much pain from external hemorrhoids.
