| The most common
sign/symptom of internal hemorrhoids is bright red blood
covered stool, blood covered toilet paper, or blood in
the toilet bowl. Internal hemorrhoids rarely hurt or
itch as you cant feel them because they are deep inside
the rectum. Generally speaking, internal hemorrhoids are
quite harmless, but since their bleeding can mask blood
from a dangerous source such as colorectal cancer they
should be treated. Internal
hemorrhoids can also become prolapsed which means that
the veins actually protrude or "fall
out" of the rectum. |
