Is it true that having hemorrhoids increases a person's risk of developing colorectal cancer?
Unclear. One Taiwanese retrospective cohort reports that people diagnosed with hemorrhoids had roughly double the incidence of colorectal cancer, and a low-quality article asserts hemorrhoids later turn into bowel cancer. This is partial, single-population observational evidence for an association, not proof that hemorrhoids cause colorectal cancer.
