Colonoscopy was done and there was hemorrhoid's found in the last portion of small intestine. Causes?
So my mother had a colonoscopy done and she forgot to ask her doctor about the cause of there being hemorrhoid’s in the last portion of the small intestine. The last portion is found to be the ileum, because it goes from duodenum, jejunum, to the ileum. Does anyone know the cause of there being hemorrhoid’s there? All help appreciated! Thanks!

Okie Dokie! Let’s set the record straight. A colonoscopy looks at the colon (large intestine) not the small intestine. The colonoscopy makes the journey through the colon via the anus, up the descending colon, across the transverse colon, around the bend and down the ascending colon and if successful finally reaches the cecum. At this point the doctor begins looking for abnormalities and polyps while retracting the colonoscope. After the scope is almost completely retracted, the doctor turns the scope to look at the rectum and that’s when they will see the hemorrhoids.
