What Causes Hemorrhoid Tag?

default
Posted on Mon, 3 Nov 2014
Question: I have something on the end of a hemorrhoid "flap", I call it that is white. When I had a bowl movement a couple of days ago and wiped it bled quite a bit. Took a good 15 mins for it to stop. The next morning I put preparation H on it and it seemed to have calmed down but the white tip is still there. Please give some idea of what may be going on. thanks

Brief Answer:
sounds as hemorrhoids tag

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I could see images and confirm sentinel piles.

However it sounds to be tag left after hemorrhoids healing. It is nor serious.

You may get it excised if it repeated bothers you. Get examined by local doctor after the bleed. Preparation H was good way to treat.
