Gill's Notes on the Bible
But the hand of the Lord was heavy on them of Ashdod,.... Not only on their idol, but on themselves; it had crushed him to pieces, and now it fell heavy on them to their destruction:
and he destroyed them; either by the disease after mentioned they were smitten with, or rather with some other, since that seems not to be mortal, though painful; it may be with the pestilence:
and smote them with emerods; more properly haemorrhoids, which, as Kimchi says, was the name of a disease, but he says not what; Ben Gersom calls it a very painful disease, from whence comes a great quantity of blood. Josephus u takes it to be the dysentery or bloody flux; it seems to be what we commonly call the piles, and has its name in Hebrew from the height of them, rising up sometimes into high large tumours:
even Ashdod and the coasts thereof; not only the inhabitants of the city were afflicted with this disease, but those of the villages round about.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Emerods - A corruption of âhemorrhoids.â It is mentioned Deuteronomy 28:27 among the diseases with which God threatened to punish the Israelites for disobedience.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Samuel 5:6. Smote them with emerods — The word עפ××× apholim, from ×¢×¤× aphal, to be elevated, probably means the disease called the bleeding piles, which appears to have been accompanied with dysentery, bloody flux, and ulcerated anus.
The Vulgate says, Et percussit in secretiori parte natium; "And he smote them in the more secret parts of their posteriors." To this the psalmist is supposed to refer, Psalms 78:66, He smote all his enemies in the HINDER PARTS; he put them to a perpetual reproach. Some copies of the Septuagint have εξεζεÏεν Î±Ï ÏÎ¿Î¹Ï ÎµÎ¹Ï ÏÎ±Ï Î½Î±Ï Ï, "he inflamed them in their ships:" other copies have ÎµÎ¹Ï ÏÎ±Ï ÎµÌδÏαÏ, "in their posteriors." The Syriac is the same. The Arabic enlarges: "He smote them in their posteriors, so that they were affected with a dysenteria." I suppose them to have been affected with enlargements of the haemorrhoidal veins, from which there came frequent discharges of blood.
The Septuagint and Vulgate make a very material addition to this verse: Îαι μεÏον ÏÎ·Ï ÏÏÏÎ±Ï Î±Ï ÏÎ·Ï Î±Î½ÎµÏÏ ÎµÏιν Î¼Ï ÎµÏΠκαι εγενεÏο ÏÏ Î³ÏÏ ÏÎ¹Ï Î¸Î±Î½Î±ÏÎ¿Ï Î¼ÎµÎ³Î±Î»Î· εν Ïη Ïολει; Et ebullierunt villae et agri in medio regionis illius; et nati sunt mures, et facta est confusio mortis magnae in civitate: "And the cities and fields of all that region burst up, and mice were produced, and there was the confusion of a great death in the city." This addition Houbigant contends was originally in the Hebrew text; and this gives us the reason why golden mice were sent, as well as the images of the emerods, (1 Samuel 6:4), when the ark was restored.
