Brief Answer: Chances of re bleed. Treat as soon as possible. Detailed Answer: Hello sir, Nice to meet you here, Have gone through the picture you have attached [a part of blood vessel expelled,most likely of hemorrhoid] .There are possible chances of re bleeding from eroded blood vessel of anal mucosa, so I need you to visit nearby surgeon for clinical examination [per rectal examination] and get treated accordingly. Various method of treatments are available for you to treat the hemorrhoids,like 1. Rubber band ligation [typically recommended as the first line treatment in those with grade 1 to 3 disease] 2. Sclerotherapy [ involves the injection of a sclerosing agent, such as phenol, into the hemorrhoid. ] 3.And cauterization [of eroded vessel to arrest bleeding]. So consult with your treating surgeon regarding treatment which is suitable for you. Try to take nutrition rich in dietary fiber, Practice sitz baths, avoid straining while attempting to defecate. Taking fiber rich diet [ reduces episodes of bleeding by producing bulk stools.] Hope helped you,Feel free to contact me again anytime for any clarifications or further assistance in future. Take care. Regards, Dr.surendiran gaj.
