Are severe internal hemorrhoids a cancer risk?

Ask
Hello doctor! Let me ask, I went to the doctor and it was said that it was internal hemorrhoids. I took prescription medication and applied it but there was almost no improvement. I sat down very painfully and there was excess flesh outside (the doctor said it was extra skin due to internal hemorrhoids swelling and pushing out). I am very worried that I am seriously ill leading to cancer. Please give me the answer as soon as possible. Thank you so much doctor

Hello. There is no link between hemorrhoids and cancer. However, the symptoms of hemorrhoids, especially bloody stools, are similar to those of people with colorectal cancer and some other gastrointestinal diseases.
Therefore, if you are still worried about your condition still not improving after taking the medicine, you should talk to your treating doctor for appropriate treatment.
In addition, you can also go to the hospitals of Vinmec Health system to be examined and treated by experienced Gastroenterologists..
Thank you for sending your question to the Health System. Vinmec.
