Hemorrhoids are very familiar but not everyone knows these things

Hemorrhoids are also considered by many to be 'hard to say' disease, a disease that 'affects' most people from young to old.

About 30-40% of adults have hemorrhoids

According to Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Xuan Hung, Director of Center for Colorectal and Perineal Surgery, Head of Vietnamese German Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, hemorrhoids are anatomical structures with normal physiological functions in the body, However, over time or when the transfer structure turns into pathological state, it appears that symptoms such as defecation of fresh blood, vascular occlusion, painful inflammation are called hemorrhoids. Accordingly, there are typical signs of hemorrhoids such as defecation of fresh blood, when the defecation sees a mass of hemorrhoids in the anal area, when this block causes embolism, it falls more and causes pain.

The folk saying that the 'cross-hemorrhoids' are about the prevalence of hemorrhoids. Also according to Assoc.

Assoc. Hung also said that hemorrhoids are actually benign but annoying, if not cured, it will lead to certain consequences. Hemorrhoids are benign (chronic and episodic) but not so that people are subjective, so when symptoms need to be concerned and visited.

Besides, Director of the Center for Colorectal and Perinatal Surgery of Vietnamese German Hospital also said that hemorrhoids are benign and easy to guess but not because they are so subjective. Abnormal anatomical manifestations need to be examined because it may also be a sign of some potentially dangerous disease.
