What kind of bumps in the anus?
Hemorrhoidal node - is the consequences of exacerbation of chronic hemorrhoids or the manifestation of such a disease as acute hemorrhoids.
Cones form near the anus in the outside or inside the rectum, and can appear simultaneously inside and out - this is called "combined hemorrhoids."
Internal venous nodes can not be noticed immediately, because they are painless. Over time, the nodes fall out of the rectum, bringing pain, discomfort and suffering to the patient.
The problem of cones should be solved immediately, without delaying the visit to the doctor, otherwise the consequences can be unpleasant.
Why do they climb?
Cones are formed by stretching the venous wall in the anus, accompanied by inflammation of the mucosa.
They look like empty pouches of stenotic tissue, they can remain at rest for a long time, while its filling with blood is not
provokes stagnation of the blood clot in the anus or thrombosis of the blood vessel.
The bag is filled with blood and under the influence of internal pressure, increases in size.
This is a hemorrhoidal cone - a dense and painful formation.
A cone interferes with the emptying of the intestine, makes it painful and, during straining, during bowel movement, can fall out of the rectum.
The first time that the cones did not reach even small dimensions, they have properties to return to their original position after the load is eliminated.

If you do not start to treat hemorrhoids at the initial stage, hemorrhoids begin to fall out.
With triggering and chronic hemorrhoids, fixing cones is no longer possible. They bring severe pain during defecation, long sitting and even when walking.
A visit to the proctologist at this stage is necessary immediately, since the prolapse of the node may be a sign of an oncological disease.
About the purposes of diagnosis and treatment of
Only a doctor, a proctologist, can give the patient a correct diagnosis after carrying out a comprehensive diagnosis, which is carried out on the recommendation of a specialist and with full observance of it.

During the first visit, the doctor performs an examination and a finger examination. It determines the presence of cones, their structure and the relief of the walls of the large intestine. This examination helps to exclude oncological diseases of the anus, to detect fistulas and other changes in the mucosa.
If this is not enough, the doctor prescribes an anoscopy - this is a survey of the rectum with the help of an anoscope. The tool is a hollow metal tube with an optical instrument on the tip. It is inserted into the rectum to a depth of 8-12 cm and with the help of an optical device on the screen of the monitor you can consider all the defects of the anus.
