Millions of people across the globe suffer from hemorrhoids or piles. One of the major reasons for this condition is constipation. When a person develops constipation, he or she applies excessive pressure and force to the abdominal and rectal tissues and blood vessels during bowel movements. When this happens regularly, then the blood vessels in the anal and rectal regions swell and bunch together – which eventually leads to hemorrhoids or piles.
The uncomfortable and annoying symptoms of piles include bleeding while passing stools, and pain. Piles come out of the anus – which may have to be pushed in or never go in; itching around the anus. Untreated piles can lead to blood loss over a long period and cause anemia ( low hemoglobin) – which in turn can lead to tiredness and heart failure.
Types of Piles
External piles and internal piles
External piles develop on the external part or outer surface of the anus.
Internal piles: pile develops in the inner anal canal or the inner rectal region. Internal piles are inside the anal canal. These are the ones that bleed and come out of the anal canal. Internal piles are the most common cause of symptoms.
