A member asked:
I have a small external hemorrhoid...will it go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Difficult to say: External hemorrhoid can persist for a long time, and they are usually asymptomatic except for the fact it is there. Leave it alone if it doesnt bother otherwise a surgeon can excise it under local anesthesia.
