Haemorrhoids

Haemorrhoids, also known as piles, are very common swellings that develop on the anus or the back passage. They are caused by varicose veins.

People can be affected by it at any age, although, the chances are higher in senior years. Haemorrhoids tend to be caused by factors that are connected to ill-treated blood vessels.

These factors may occur by having a sedentary lifestyle, constipation, being overweight or pregnant, or having prolonged straining while seated on the toilet.

In most cases the patients are easily cured from piles by taking simple measures. Although, specific types of haemorrhoids need specific treatments. Haemorrhoids can reoccur and can be terribly unforgettable.

How do haemorrhoids treatments work?

In case of slight discomfort, patients can take medical products such as Anucort-HC Rect and Proctosol HC Rect or can use ointments or creams such as Hemorrhoidal Cream Rect in order to alleviate the pain.

If the patient has not benefited from any of the treatments above, surgery may be required to eliminate further haemorrhoid development.

Preventing haemorrhoids from appearing in the first place can be achieved by following a healthy diet, rich with fruits and vegetables, as well as whole grains. Drinking lots of fluids also helps to keep your stools soft, which lowers your chances of developing piles.

It is highly recommended not to spend much time sitting on the toilet and straining too hard, as this creates pressure in the lower rectum and may cause varicose veins. It is also preferred to be physically active, not to remain in a seated position for a long time, and keep balanced bodyweight.

What are haemorrhoids?

Haemorrhoids, or piles, are vascular structures in the anal canal which help to evacuate the digested food. They become disturbing when swollen or inflamed and need to be treated accordingly. Haemorrhoids can be internal and external. Internal piles are usually painless but cause bleeding, whereas the external haemorrhoids can become painful and irritating as they grow out of the back passage.

Symptoms of haemorrhoids

Even though haemorrhoids in most cases have no symptoms and most of the time people don’t realise that they are affected by them, there are some symptoms that may cause a range of serious problems.

Often times, the person affected by piles will feel itchy around the back passage. Bleeding from the same area often occurs. This is usually noticed as small amounts of bright red blood which will be seen on the toilet paper.

A swelling may protrude from the anus and can be felt around the opening of the back passage. It is usually soft and fleshy but may become hard if left untreated. Other symptoms include inflammation and soreness in the back passage area.
