A member asked:
What does it mean when "internal" hemorrhoids are on the "anal verge"? i've been checked numerous times for the pains i have - no anal fissures.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Beyond the orifice: The anal verge is the distal end of the anal canal, forming a transitional zone between the epithelium of the anal canal and the perianal skin. Please google netterimages.com for a picture of the site of the anal verge.
