Hemorrhoids Complications

There are several complications associated with hemorrhoids and these include:

-ruptured hemorrhoid: this is when the hemorrhoid tears open, resulting in bleeding

-gastrointestinal bleeding: this is bleeding in the digestive tract due to hemorrhoids

-anemia: this is a deficiency of red blood cells and/or hemoglobin and can result if too much blood is lost

-thrombosis hemorrhoids: these are hemorrhoids that have developed a clot inside and are usually quite painful

-strangulation: this occurs when a prolapsed hemorrhoid's blood supply has become obstructed by the tightening of the anal sphincter and is very painful
