Hemorriods. poping it is a good choice!..?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No! No! No!: Hemorrhoids are essentially varicose veins of the rectum. Popping them would be tantamount to slitting a vein. Unless your hemorrhoid is thrombosed and abscesses, this is not advised and should be performed by a surgeon.
