Can ITP Cause Appearance Of Painful Hemorrhoids Externally?
Hi, I have been diagnosed with chronic ITP and treated with Nplate for a week with a platelets count results of 419. last night I developed external haemorrhoids, about 6 big grape like shaped, very sore and excruciating painful. No bleeding and no constipation, my bowel movement has ben fine. Can this be related to the ITP treatment?

Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. ITP is immune thrombocytopenic purpura. It has no relation with your haemorrhoids. Consult your doctor and take treatment of hemorrhoid. Take high fiber diet. Avoid oily and spicy food.
