Hemorrhoids (Piles) are swollen veins in the lower re**um or around the a**s—similar to varicose veins but in that area. They’re common and usually not dangerous, but can be uncomfortable.
🔹 Common Symptoms:
Bright red bleeding during or after passing stool
Itching or irritation around the a**s
Pain or discomfort while sitting
Swelling or a lump near the a**s
Mucus discharge
🔹 When to See a Doctor
Persistent bleeding
Severe pain
No improvement with home care
Uncertain if it’s hemorrhoids (to rule out other conditions)
⚠️ Important
Don’t ignore re**al bleeding—while it’s often hemorrhoids, it can sometimes indicate other conditions.
