What Are The Symptoms Of Internal Hemorrhoids?

I had two internal hemorrhoids banded and also had anal skin tags shaved off that did not require stitches. Now that I am 2 weeks post op, the skin tags look worse than before. Hard to tell if that was the internal hemorrhoids or not. But it is more noticeable prior surgery. I realize its a very sensitive area down there...I have been keeping myself very clean. No pain at all. And scant drainage. I am concerned about the size of the anal tags though....

Hi,
I can unnderstand your concern but the fact is that the skin around the anus is relatively lose and that is why it is not unusual to develop small skin tags again but believe me these are harmless. If it still bothers you then you can still go for a cosmetic one.
