Why do internal hemorrhoids prolapse without pain, itching, or bleeding?
Internal hemorrhoids that prolapse but do not hurt, itch, or bleed are primarily due to the large size of the prolapsed hemorrhoids and severe varicose veins underneath them, which leads to prolapse. At this time, they are less likely to bleed and will not cause itching. Since internal hemorrhoids are located above the dentate line in the anal canal, at the end of the rectum, and are innervated by the autonomic nervous system, they also do not cause pain. However, if internal hemorrhoids remain prolapsed at the anus for a long time, they can easily lead to local inflammatory edema, causing local pain and even a significant increase in secretion from the anal area. Therefore, when internal hemorrhoids prolapse, they should be pushed back into the anus as soon as possible. If repositioning is not possible, it is recommended to promptly undergo a hemorrhoid banding procedure, and regularly perform pelvic floor exercises to ensure smooth bowel movements.
