What difference does the symptom of haemorrhoid and rectum cancer have

summary

Hemorrhoids and rectal cancer have something in common, but we should learn to distinguish them. Patients with hemorrhoids will have pain in the anus, and blood in the stool is the main symptom. The main symptom of rectal cancer is also blood in the stool. In our life, we do not know enough about these diseases, which is easy to cause confusion and lead to misdiagnosis and mistreatment. Therefore, it is very important to distinguish these two diseases. What is the difference between the symptoms of hemorrhoids and rectal cancer.

What difference does the symptom of haemorrhoid and rectum cancer have

First, the location of hemorrhoids and rectal cancer are almost the same, but belong to two diseases with different nature and different consequences. In the early stage of the disease, there was no obvious clinical manifestation, the only common manifestation was bloody stool and dripping blood. According to relevant statistics, more than half of rectal cancer patients are treated as hemorrhoids at the time of initial diagnosis, some even as long as months and years, resulting in delayed diagnosis, loss of treatment opportunities, and serious consequences.

Second: we know that hemorrhoids are a common benign disease of the anal tract, and the incidence rate is very high in the crowd. It is known as "ten people and nine hemorrhoids". No matter internal hemorrhoids, mixed hemorrhoids or external hemorrhoids, there are hematochezia, prolapse of tumor and protrusion at anal margin. Only when incarceration of internal hemorrhoids, prolapse of mixed hemorrhoids, inflammation, and thrombosis of external hemorrhoids occur, can patients feel anal pain, affect sitting posture, have difficulty defecating, and have limited walking, so they often seek emergency medical treatment.

Third: it is not difficult to distinguish hemorrhoids and rectal cancer in the early stage under today's medical conditions. From the perspective of patients, we must pay attention to anorectal examination, and from the perspective of doctors, as long as we are not afraid of trouble, we can preliminarily identify the extended finger anorectal examination, of course, the final diagnosis also depends on biopsy. If the patient only has bloody stool, no other discomfort, feels healthy, does not consider seeking medical treatment at all, or mistakenly treats hemorrhoids, it is bound to cause rectal cancer patients to lose the best treatment opportunity

matters needing attention

The harm caused by hemorrhoids is different from that caused by rectal cancer, so when the body is not in time, we must go to the regular hospital for scientific diagnosis. It is not difficult to distinguish hemorrhoids and rectal cancer in the early stage under today's medical conditions.
