Anal polyps, a type of hemorrhoids, are asymptomatic and quiescent hemorrhoids. You only need to pay attention to your diet, keep your stools unobstructed, and prevent complications. They require treatment, as they may become cancerous. There are also injection therapy, cryotherapy, etc. When non-surgical treatment for hemorrhoids fails or the supporting connective tissue around hemorrhoids is extensively damaged, hemorrhoid bleeding, thrombosis, symptoms or incarceration caused by hemorrhoid prolapse, surgical treatment should be taken.

Anal polyps are a type of hemorrhoids, which are asymptomatic and quiescent hemorrhoids that are visible during defecation without pain. The symptoms include occasional bleeding and different shapes. Blood in the stool [1]: Painless blood in the stool is the main clinical manifestation of rectal polyps. The amount of hematochezia bleeding from polyps is small. If the polyps fall off due to squeezing during defecation, or the polyps are large in size and located in a low position, a larger amount of hematochezia may occur. Hematochezia is characterized by bloody stools without bleeding. Prolapse: When the polyps are large or numerous, the intestinal mucosa is pulled by gravity, causing it to gradually separate from the muscle layer and prolapse downward. The patient's defecation movements and intestinal peristalsis stimulation can cause the mucosal layer around the pedicle to relax, which may cause rectal prolapse. Intestinal irritation symptoms: When intestinal peristalsis pulls polyps, intestinal irritation symptoms may occur, such as abdominal discomfort, abdominal pain, diarrhea, purulent and bloody stools, tenesmus, etc.
