Can wind make hemorrhoids bleed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If the hemorhoids: Inflamed and slowly bleeding, passing gas will release any blood accumulating in the rectum. But any other rectal/colonic source of bleeding may also generate blood with flatus passage. See a colorectal surgeon to identify and treat the problem.
