Can hemorrhoids lead to something worse like cancer?

I think I may have a hemorrhoid (sorry if that’s gross) but I am too embarrassed to tell my mum. Will it go away? or if left untreated will it turn into something worse? please help!! thank you.

    I had one too. They usually go away after a while. If it doesn’t go away after a couple of weeks, go see a doctor. They don’t cause cancer, they are just stretched blood vessels. Avoid Taco Bell ;)

    Hemorrhoids exist internally in all of us. However, the problems occur when these hemorrhoids become external. There are veins and blood vessels in the anal canal. As relates to cancer, there is no relationship between hemorrhoids and cancer. Cancer is caused by cells that divide and are out of control in the body. Hemorrhoids are enlarged and swollen rectal veins. Although rectal bleeding maybe a symptom of hemorrhoids, this should only be a minor symptom and should be treated if it persists.
