Types of hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoids tend to be classified into two types, and one of them in turn on several subtypes.
In the first classification we find internal and external hemorrhoids. These are located in one or the other group depending on its location.
External hemorrhoids
External hemorrhoids are those that are located below the anal toothed line, also known as the pectine line.
This pectin line is the zone or separate line where the tissue is attached from which the inside of the rectum and skin is made.
External hemorrhoids can produce pain and / or escouzon, this last symptom produced rather due to the irritation of the adjacent skin fruit of an incorrect cleaning.
Internal hemorrhoids
The internal hemorrhoids or hemorrhoids are those that are located inside the rectum above the pectinene line or on the edge of it.
These hemorrhoids do not cause any kind of pain or discomfort because the inner area of the rectum (lacks pain receivers), and this is one of the reasons why many people who have hemorrhoids do not do it.
Within this classification would miss the following types or subtypes of hemorrhoids that we will not include in any of the main types for being synonymous from them or why they can not be included exclusively in any of the types as they can appear in Any of them.
For these reasons we will disclose this type of hemorrhoids a part without including them in any of the two main groups:
- hemorroidesProlapsadas
- hemorroidesTrombosadas
- hemorroidesEstranguladas
Obviously it is possible to classify hemorrhoids from other ways, but for the knowledge of them any of the methods is perfectly effective, including the one we have used.
