Summary: | Hemorrhoidal venous cushions are normal structures of the anorectum and are universally present unless a prior intervention has taken place. Because of their rich vascular supply, highly sensitive location, and tendency to engorge and prolapse, they are common causes of anal pathology Symptoms can range from mildly bothersome, such as pruritus, to quite concerning, such as rectal bleeding, and while it is a common condition diagnosed in clinical practice, many patients are too embarrassed to ever seek treatment. First-degree hemorrhoids (Gradel): The anal cushions bleed but do not prolapsed. [...]degree hemorrhoids (Grade II): The anal cushions prolapse through the anus onstraining but reduce spontaneously. [...]degree hemorrhoids (Grade III): The anal cushions prolapse through the anus onstraining or exertion and require manual replacement into the anal canal. |
