Dr. Brand:
The external hemorrhoids have a tough skin covering so they can be very sensitive and painful, but because they have a tough covering, it’s hard to make them bleed. Then finally because the internal hemorrhoids belong up inside the anal canal, they have the potential to hang outside the anal canal, and that can cause problems.
