Most people who think they have hemorrhoids are actually mistaken. If you have these symptoms, they are almost certainly not from hemorrhoids.
Anal cushions are the tail end of the anal canal.
The job of anal cushions is to provide a complete seal of the anus when it is closed. Because tissues of your intestinal tract cover the hemorrhoids, they do not itch, burn or cause any jabbing or sharp pain. Tissues of the intestinal tract simply cannot relay those kinds of symptoms to your brain. Symptoms like itch and burning and soreness are signs of skin problems. The skin can and does produce all of those types of sensations.
