Do hemorrhoids cause frequent bowel movements?

Hemorrhoids generally do not cause frequent bowel movements. Hemorrhoids mainly occur near the dentate line of the rectum or anal canal, and have a significant irritating effect on the local skin around the anus, which can cause hemorrhoid pain, increased bowel movement, and blood in the stool in severe cases. Generally speaking, the symptoms of hemorrhoids are not very serious, and conservative treatment is usually adopted. Usually, attention is paid to the cleanliness around the anus, local cleaning and drying, and appropriate application of hemorrhoid ointment or hemorrhoid suppository. If the symptoms of hemorrhoids are more severe, especially internal hemorrhoids, it will lead to hemorrhoid incarceration, difficulty in defecation, and the frequency of bowel movements may increase.

What is the reason for frequent bowel movements?

1. The common cause of the disease is acute intestinal inflammation. Due to the lack of complete cure, it leads to chronic intestinal inflammatory changes. Repeated anti-inflammatory and excessive treatment lead to flora disorders and intestinal dysfunction.

3. It may be chronic enteritis. Long-term chronic inflammatory stimulation can cause changes in the intestinal mucosa, leading to erosion and ulcers. As long as the colitis is cured, the mucus will disappear.

The main symptoms of hemorrhoids:

1. The early symptom of hemorrhoids is blood in the stool, which is also the main symptom of internal hemorrhoids in the early stage. It includes spurting bleeding, dripping bleeding, paper tape blood, etc., which are bright red in color. External hemorrhoids generally do not cause bleeding.

2. Pain. Pain is the main symptom of external hemorrhoids. There is no pain when there is no inflammation in internal hemorrhoids. Pain often occurs in internal hemorrhoid infection, incarceration and strangulation necrosis, which may cause severe pain.

3. Prolapse, the main symptom of middle and late stage internal hemorrhoids. Due to the increase of internal hemorrhoid nodules, the mucosa and the lower layer of the mucosa are separated from the anal layer. During defecation, the internal hemorrhoid nodules can drop below the dentate line and free the anal canal.

4. Itching. Repeated shedding of late-stage hemorrhoids will cause relaxation of the anal dilation muscles and increased secretions, resulting in frequent moisture, itching and eczema at the anal edge. Severe cases can also cause friction pain and itching pain. Bleeding can also cause anemia, dizziness, loss of appetite, dry stools, etc.
