Can hemorrhoids bleed for weeks?

Bleeding...: There are certain symptoms - or complaints - that all physicians should regard as 'alarm' symptoms, i.e. They are of concern. Bleeding is definitely one of these. Please see your md asap. Yes - hemorrhoids can bleed for days but you should get a firm diagnosis and appropriate therapy if they are the source.

Yes: Bleefing or weeks could be hemorrhoids, but other causes need o be excluded. Medical evaluation should include anoscopy and colonoscopy.
