Bleeding from internal hemorrhoids is bright red. If the amount of bleeding is substantial, it can appear as a jet-like hemorrhoidal bleeding. This condition is caused by hard and dry stools scratching the hemorrhoidal veins during defecation, leading to bleeding. Repeated bleeding from internal hemorrhoids can cause chronic blood loss and result in symptoms of anemia. It is advisable to actively engage in medication or minimally invasive treatments, using drugs to stop bleeding and constrict hemorrhoidal veins. Some may undergo vein ligation surgery minimally invasively. At the same time, it is important to have a light diet, drink more water, eat more vegetables, and ensure smooth bowel movements.
