What should I do if the internal hemorrhoids hurt after being pushed back in?
If the pain does not subside after pushing back a prolapsed internal hemorrhoid, it is often due to the formation of a thrombus, which is why the localized pain is quite noticeable.
In such cases, it is advised to use topical medications for treatment. You can use hemorrhoid suppositories or ointment, inserting them into the anus to alleviate the pain. If the pain remains significant, you can also take oral pain relievers temporarily. If pain persists even after these treatments, it may be considered a strangulated hemorrhoid, which is more serious. It is recommended that you visit a formal hospital's proctology department. There, a doctor can perform a digital rectal examination and an anoscopy to establish a definitive diagnosis and provide appropriate treatment. If very severe, surgery may be needed.
(Use of medications should be under the guidance of a physician.)
