Why examination matters Contributing factors Treatment options Prompt assessment Common questions
01

## Why examination matters

Rectal bleeding should not be assumed to be hemorrhoids. History, examination and—when indicated—additional testing help identify the source.

02

## Contributing factors

Straining, constipation and pregnancy can contribute, but symptoms and risk factors differ between patients.

03

## Treatment options

Management may include bowel-habit measures, medicines or office and surgical procedures. The appropriate choice depends on the type and severity.

04

## Prompt assessment

Heavy bleeding, dizziness, black stools, severe pain, fever, weight loss or a change in bowel habit needs timely medical evaluation.

FAQ

## Questions patients often ask

Is painless bleeding always hemorrhoids?+

No. Several bowel conditions can cause bleeding, so assessment is important.

Can constipation make symptoms worse?+

Straining and hard stool can aggravate hemorrhoid symptoms.

Will I need colonoscopy?+

That decision depends on age, history, warning signs, examination and screening needs.
