Hemorrhoids or piles are due to swelling or
enlargement of the veins that supply the rectal outlet of the body.
This painful condition is often complicated by localized inflammation
and bleeding, and also thrombosis in many cases. People who suffer from
constipation and other bowel disorders are more likely to develop
hemorrhoids. Piles are also more common in pregnancy, and in conditions
affecting the liver and upper bowel. There are two types
of hemorrhoids:
External hemorrhoids. Internal hemorrhoids.
External hemorrhoids are more common,
for they lie outside the anorectal junction. Internal
hemorrhoids
are soft and dark colored, and usually irregular in shape. When very
large, they may protrude through the anus. Straining at the stool may
bring them down. This may be followed by strangulation of the
hemorrhoids with severe pain. These may be from:
Portal stasis
Pelvic diseases as frequent pregnancies, uterine displacement and new pelvic
growth. Habitual constipation especially of persons taking spicy foods and
alcohol.
Hemorrhoids are the most common cause of the rectal bleeding. The blood
is bright red and may be noted on the toilet paper, and also covering
the surface of the stool or dripping into the toilet bowl after the
stool is passed. However because cancer of the rectum may possibly also
be present, a thorough examination should be done in all cases of
hemorrhoids.
Small hemorrhoids that cause only slight bleeding may not require any
treatment. The patient should take at least six to eight glasses of
water a day. The diet should be rich in fruits and vegetables. He
should avoid straining at stool. Itching of the anus may also be
present. HOME REMEDIES FOR
