Hello,
With the question "How is V-degree hemorrhoids during pregnancy treated? ", the doctor answered as follows:
Hemorrhoids are divided into internal hemorrhoids and external hemorrhoids. External hemorrhoids only cause burning pain when there are complications of thrombosis or inflammation of hemorrhoids. Internal hemorrhoids are divided into 4 grades: I, II, III, and IV. Usually during pregnancy, the symptoms of hemorrhoids tend to get worse, especially in the last months of pregnancy. Therefore, you should consult a gastroenterologist for more detailed advice.
