    You get pain, pressure and maybe a little blood, depending how bad they are. Have you had a colonoscopy lately.? Would be a good thing to do. Hope all goes well.

      Yes, internal hemmoroids can be seen by colonoscopy and it will clear your mind of anything else. I had one with a mis-diagnose and now I have rectal cancer. You could still have hem... they do hurt and bleed a little. A colonoscopy does not hurt, they put you to sleep, but it will calm your mind.
