Diagnosed With Ext Thrombosed Haemorrhoid 5, Feel Swollen Veins Near It. Is It Serious ?
Hi I have been diagnosed with ext thrombosed haemorrhoid 5 weeks ago. Currently it has shrunk to minimum level as good as not there but just have some skin tag left. I feel swollen veins near ext haemorrhoid but no bleeding or pain during stool passing Is this serious? If so, do I need to go for internal diagnosis of rectum via proctoscopy / sigmoidoscopy Pls let me know if I can sit like normal or use ring pillow for some time. There is no pain but only minor itching occasionally. I have been using proctosedyl & scheriproct with sitz baths regularly Thanks

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
Its good that you are taking sitz bath daily.
Its advisable to go for a proctoscopy as many of times internal and external haemorrhoid co exist.
Also I advice you to go for an early surgery.
Delay in surgery often complicates the situation.
Please meet a dermatologist for final diagnosis and treatment
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
