Second, clinical symptoms, rectal polyps will appear blood in the stool, the amount of mostly small, painless, blood will be attached to the surface of the stool; while the bleeding of hemorrhoids is large, painless, blood and stool separation, can appear after the stool drip or spray blood. Third, treatment, rectal polyps once diagnosed, most need to be removed, because it has the possibility of malignant transformation; while the treatment of hemorrhoids is based on symptom control, most of the conservative treatment, only through conservative treatment can not control the symptoms of hemorrhoids, then consider surgery.
