    External hemorrhoids are small lumps just outside the anus that can look like and cause bleeding and itching. Home remedies include warm baths, cool compresses, and topical applications, such as witch hazel. These external hemorrhoids often result from straining during a bowel movement.
    Hemorrhoids can appear as one or more bumps on and around the anus, which can be seen from the outside. You might have just one hemorrhoid or more than one at a time. Thrombosed hemorrhoids occur when the blood that’s pooled inside has clotted, which can be painful in external hemorrhoids. Doctors can also diagnose hemorrhoids based on these symptoms.
    Prolapsed hemorrhoids are swollen red lumps or bumps coming out of your anus. You may be able to see them if you use a mirror to examine this area. They look like swollen red masses. Prolapsed hemorrhoids may have no other symptom than the protrusion, or they may cause pain or discomfort, itchiness, or burning.
    Hemorrhoids can appear in two locations: External hemorrhoids, which are under the skin around the anus, and internal hemorrhoids. External hemorrhoids are located under the skin around the anus, where there are many more pain-sensing nerves. Prolapsed hemorrhoids are internal hemorrhoids that stretch down so far that they bulge outside the anal opening.
