When hems bleed, how many days after will they continue to bleed before stopping?

Variable...: Hemorrhoids are swollen anal veins that are sometimes called anal cushions and are a common cause of rectal bleeding. They can bleed sporadically, periodically or continuously. Usually they will stop if and when the primary triggering factor is reduced or eliminated such as constipation, diarrhea, straining, hard stools etc. Hydrocortisone creams and suppositories can help sooth and palliate.
