What Causes Black Spot On External Hemorrhoid?
Hi im a 19 year old male who has recently had a hemorrhoid develop externally. Its been 6-8 days since appearing and no signs of going away. I have recently discovered a black/bruised spot on the hemorrhoid. Is this something i should get checked out by a doctor or will everything go away in a few days?

hello
Thanks for the query.
Haemorrhoids are dilative wins.
Blackish discolouration of haemorrhoids means that clot has developed in the vein.
It's a normal thing there is nothing to worry.
However at a later stage it might develop infection hence it is better to meet your treating doctor and consult.
Let me know if you have any other out.
Thank you
