Having a history of hemorrhoids, having a lot of anal bleeding but no burning pain is it dangerous?

Ask
Hello doctor! My father has a long history of hemorrhoids but has not been able to go to the doctor and get treatment. Today, suddenly, his anal area was bleeding a lot, but it was not painful, so I was very worried. So the doctor asked me if I have a history of hemorrhoids, have a lot of anal bleeding but no burning pain, is it dangerous? Ask your doctor for advice and answers! Thank you sincerely!

Hello! If bleeding from hemorrhoids is small, there is nothing to worry about. However, given the condition and age of your father, it is necessary to arrange a time to visit medical facilities or hospitals under Vinmec Health System to examine and perform a colonoscopy, then the doctor can pay the fee. Detailed and accurate explanation is it dangerous to have a history of hemorrhoids, have a lot of anal bleeding but no burning sensation? In fact, the amount of bleeding as you describe is not only caused by hemorrhoids but also has many other dangerous diseases.
Thank you for your trust and concern to Vinmec. Looking forward to one day meeting you and your brother for more in-depth consultation. Best regards!
