Many people develop hemorrhoids due to bad eating habits, long periods of sitting at work, and lack of exercise. Itchy anus and bleeding stools are often related to hemorrhoids. You need to increase your exercise and adjust your eating habits. However, if the bleeding in the stool is severe, it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up before deciding how to treat it. Especially in terms of diet, you should focus on fruits and vegetables and avoid spicy foods.

It could be hemorrhoids, but it could also be anal fissure. I suggest you go to the anorectal department for examination. Both of these diseases require dietary adjustments. Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, drink plenty of water, keep your bowel movements smooth, and don't eat spicy and irritating foods. If there is blood and pain in the stool, it is considered to be external hemorrhoids, and the possibility of mixed hemorrhoids cannot be ruled out. Hemorrhoids do not need to be treated if there are no symptoms. You just need to pay attention to keeping the bowel movements smooth and avoiding constipation.
