Hello,
With the question "Can a constipated 4th degree internal hemorrhoid have an anal enema? ", the doctor answered as follows:
Hemorrhoids and constipation are usually not dangerous but interfere with activities, can cause discomfort and pain in the anal area, when constipated, you can take stool softeners , with the addition of plenty of water and fiber, can be combined with an enema. With grade IV internal hemorrhoids as you said, the surgical method of hemorrhoidectomy is the most optimal.
If you still have questions about the 4th degree internal hemorrhoids being constipated, you can go to a medical facility of Vinmec Health System for early examination and treatment. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
