Piles is another term for hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids are collections of inflamed tissue in the a**l ca**l. They contain blood vessels, support tissue, muscle, and elastic fibers.
🔻Causes:-
The veins around your a**s tend to stretch under pressure and may bulge or swell. Hemorrhoids can develop from increased pressure in the lower re**um due to:
🔹Straining during bowel movements
🔹Sitting for long periods of time on the toilet.
🔹Having chronic diarrhea or constipation.
🔹Being obese.
🔹Being pregnant.
🔹Eating a low-fiber diet.
🔹Regular heavy lifting.
🔻Symptoms:-
Signs and symptoms of hemorrhoids usually depend on the type of hemorrhoid.
♦ External hemorrhoids
These are under the skin around the a**s. 🔻Signs and symptoms:-
🔹Itching or irritation in your a**l region
🔹Pain or discomfort
🔹Swelling around your a**s
Bleeding.
♦ Internal hemorrhoids:-
Internal hemorrhoids lie inside the re**um. You usually can't see or feel them, and they rarely cause discomfort. But straining or irritation when passing stool can cause:
🔹Painless bleeding during bowel movements.
🔹 You might notice small amounts of bright red blood on your toilet tissue or in the toilet.
A hemorrhoid to push through the a**l opening (pr*****ed or protruding hemorrhoid), resulting in pain and irritation.
♦ Thrombosed hemorrhoids:-
If blood pools in an external hemorrhoid and forms a clot (thrombus), it can result in:
🔹Severe pain
🔹Swelling
🔹Inflammation
🔹A hard lump near the a**s
