The affected area becomes hard, swollen, and sometimes bluish or purplish in color.
Patients may also experience itching, discomfort while sitting, and difficulty with bowel movements.
Causes include straining during constipation, pregnancy, prolonged sitting, or heavy lifting.
Treatment involves pain management, warm sitz baths, topical medications, and in some cases, minor surgical removal of the clot.
