Is it accurate to judge hemorrhoids with your own hands



Their own hands to determine hemorrhoids is not accurate, because touching the anus with their hands can only touch the anus at the presence of small meatballs, but the specific appearance is not clear, there may be anal papillomas, polyps, anal cancer, warts and so on.

1. Anal papilloma: it is the proliferation of anal papillae caused by long-term inflammation and fecal stimulation, and the proliferation of anal papilloma can also be manifested as meatballs in the anus after the proliferation of anal papilloma.

2. Polyp: it is the mucous membrane elevated lesion caused by long-term chronic inflammation in the rectal cavity and anal canal, and it can also be manifested as swelling in the anus after the polyp is detached.

3. Anal cancer: malignant tumors in the anus, which can be manifested as elevated changes in the anal verge, and it is not easy to identify with hemorrhoids by touching.

4. Condyloma acuminatum: belonging to one kind of venereal disease, it can be manifested as papillary, cauliflower-like bumps in the anus, soft touch, and it is not easy to identify by pure touch.

The above several cases, their own touch can be touched to the anus at the presence of meatball swelling, it is not easy to distinguish, the specific situation also need to go to the hospital anorectal department, combined with the patient’s symptoms and related examination, in order to clarify the diagnosis, and timely treatment, can not be delayed.
