Same: A hemorroid may be thought of as a "varicose vein" a dilated vessel.They may become thromboses, meaning a clot formed.I'd follow a regieme of "sitz baths" which means sitting in warm epsom salt baths, stool softeners and more water in your diet in addition to regular exercise the keep stool soft and mobile.I also recommend "tucks" wipes.

See a Doctor: Hemmoroids do not necessarily bleed . Thrombosed hemmorroids are usually very painful. Try sitz baths and witch hazel first , if it still bothers you see a doctor , because what you assume is hmoroids it may be something more serious.
