During the operation, the hemorrhoidal node is excised along with the mucous membrane. This type of hemorrhoidectomy is most acceptable for both the doctor and the patient. This is the only surgical method that is performed for external hemorrhoids and can be performed in the following two ways:
Open . After the hemorrhoids are removed, the wounds are not sutured, but remain open. Further healing occurs naturally.
Closed . After excision of the cones, the wound is sutured, which facilitates and shortens the rehabilitation period and reduces the risk of complications.

Reasons: why hemorrhoids appear
In order for this pathology to appear, there must be a certain predisposition , which consists in the weakness of the venous walls. The phenomenon is very common - according to rough estimates, more than half of the world's population suffers from external hemorrhoids.
The main cause of external hemorrhoids is a violation of the outflow of venous blood from the veins of the external hemorrhoidal plexus through the cochlear arteries due to congenital or acquired weakness of the venous walls.
It is difficult for statistics to give exact figures - considering this problem to be quite intimate, many people do not go to the doctor, trying to cope on their own, with the help of folk remedies or “neighborly” recommendations. In this case, the disease may temporarily subside, creating a deceptive illusion of well-being, only to return with renewed vigor when the opportunity arises.
as provocative factors for the appearance (exacerbation) of external hemorrhoids:
- Lack of physical activity (prolonged sitting or standing).
- Problems with bowel movements (constipation, prolonged straining or waiting).
- Lifting weights . Weightlifting.
- Dietary disorders (spicy foods, alcohol, insufficient consumption of dairy products, fruits and vegetables).
- Pregnancy and postpartum period.
Heredity may be a deciding factor. If close relatives suffer from hemorrhoids, there is a high probability of pathology occurring in the child. This occurs due to congenital vascular dysfunction in the lower rectum.
Under the influence of unfavorable factors the following occurs:
- increased blood flow;
- overflow of all vessels;
- expansion of the cavernous bodies;
- difficulty in venous outflow;
- stagnation.

External hemorrhoids bleed - what to do
If external hemorrhoids bleed after defecation, this is a normal manifestation of the disease. Bleeding is a typical clinical picture. But any pathological process can develop quickly. This is worth remembering.

Causes of bleeding
Node thrombosis . In the absence of treatment, the inflammatory process intensifies in the thrombosed vein and infiltration develops. A node overflowing with blood may burst. A thrombosed lump, usually very painful. After it bursts, the person feels relief.
Constipation . Dense and dry feces when passing through the rectum irritate and injure the nodes, causing bleeding. Frequent constipation prevents the healing of damaged walls; blood appears at the first bowel movement. With constipation, excessive straining occurs, which increases intra-abdominal pressure. As pressure increases, the vessels expand, their walls lose their elasticity over time, become thinner and rupture.
Diarrhea . Frequent bowel movements with loose stools cause damage to the entire mucous membrane of the anal area and the walls of the cones.
Alcohol abuse . Ethanol sticks platelets together, which contributes to the development of varicose veins - the main pathogenetic factor of hemorrhoids.
