Thrombosed external hemorrhoids, as the most common clinical symptom of external hemorrhoids, exhibit significant local pain during acute attacks and are accompanied by a feeling of constriction. If during an acute attack, dark red hemorrhoidal prolapse occurs around the anal area and cannot be absorbed or retracted, a professional doctor can use specialized techniques to crush the local hemorrhoid node or surgically excise it.

However, it is not advisable for patients to burst it themselves because if done without proper sterilization and hygiene, it can easily lead to local infection, thereby exacerbating the condition or complicating future surgical treatments. Therefore, if thrombosed external hemorrhoids are detected, it is crucial to seek prompt and active treatment at a hospital.
