Picture of early stage of hemorrhoids in women

Although hemorrhoids are not a serious disease for women, repeated episodes of hemorrhoids can be very distressing. So how do you tell if you have hemorrhoids? What are the main early symptoms of hemorrhoids in women? The editor below will give a brief introduction. I hope that female friends who know that they have hemorrhoids will go to the hospital for physical examination and treatment as soon as possible.

1. One of the most obvious symptoms of hemorrhoids is blood in the stool. This kind of bleeding may be blood on the toilet paper, gushing blood in the stool, or spotting blood in the stool. Sometimes there is a layer of bright red blood on the top of the stool. This is because the stool abrades the mucous membrane and causes blood in the stool, or excessive force during defecation causes the blood vessels to rupture, resulting in gushing bleeding or spotting. If hemorrhoids cause recurring habitual bleeding, it may cause anemia in the patient.

2. Another obvious symptom of hemorrhoids is the discharge of mucus. The long-term irritation of the duodenal mucosa by hemorrhoids may produce secretory mucus. If hemorrhoids cause relaxation of the anal sphincter, mucus will be discharged. At first, it may be discharged during defecation. In more serious cases, it may be discharged even without defecation, which will pollute the underwear and cause great pain to the patient. When women have prolapsed hemorrhoids, the mucus discharge may be more serious.

3. If hemorrhoids are serious, the anus will itch. Because hemorrhoids will produce mucus secretion, the anus skin is in a humid environment for a long time. If you do not pay attention to hygiene, it will cause bacteria to grow and cause local itching. If the hemorrhoids prolapse, there will be more mucus, which is more likely to cause itching.

4. In severe cases of hemorrhoids, hemorrhoids may slip. This is because the hemorrhoids are squeezed and shaped by feces during defecation, resulting in slippage. In some cases, part of the hemorrhoids slip out, in some cases, all of the hemorrhoids slip out, and in some cases, the hemorrhoids slip out together with the duodenal mucosa. At first, they may slip out during defecation, but as the trend develops, they may slip out even when there is no defecation.

5. Hemorrhoids may cause aching pain in the late stage of development. This kind of aching pain is usually a symptom of external hemorrhoids. Internal hemorrhoids are generally not prone to aching pain. Aching pain will only occur when the internal hemorrhoids are inflamed. If the internal hemorrhoids are infected, incarcerated, and strangulated, severe aching pain will occur. This kind of aching pain is usually more severe than the aching pain in external hemorrhoids.
