People know that hemorrhoids are not usually as serious, especially when compared to a disease like anal cancer. It will help to know the difference between the two to help you understand when you should get medical treatment.

When you have anal cancer, you will experience some bleeding on your rectum. It might also be very itchy. You will also feel that there is pain or fullness in your anal area even when you do not see the need to defecate. Anal cancer is a type of cancer that is considered to be very aggressive.

It spreads very fast, so people should immediately get themselves checked if they suspect that what they are experiencing is far more than the usual symptoms of hemorrhoids. When you see blood in your stool, get yourself checked immediately.
