What do internal hemorrhoids feel like to the touch? (hard/soft) where are the hemorrhoids located ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends : Internal hemrrhoids are located inside the anus and come out with straining and then go back in. When really bad they just stay out and can't be pushed back in. Typically they are soft and mushy but can be hard if they clot off.
