Hemorrhoids: Overview and Types
Hemorrhoids, also known as piles, are swollen veins in the anus and lower rectum. They can develop either internally (inside the rectum) or externally (under the skin around the anus) 1. Here are the key points:

Internal Hemorrhoids:
Located inside the rectum.
Usually not visible or palpable.
May cause painless bleeding during bowel movements.
In some cases, they can protrude through the anal opening, leading to discomfort.
External Hemorrhoids:
Situated under the skin around the anus.
Symptoms may include:
Itching or irritation.
Pain or discomfort.
Swelling around the anus.
Bleeding (especially if a blood clot forms).
Causes of Hemorrhoids
Several factors contribute to the development of hemorrhoids:

Increased Pressure:
Straining during bowel movements.
Prolonged sitting (especially on the toilet).
Chronic diarrhea or constipation.
Obesity.
Pregnancy (due to increased pressure on the anal region).
Anal intercourse.
Low-Fiber Diet:
Insufficient dietary fiber can lead to constipation and straining.
Aging:
As people age, the risk of hemorrhoids increases due to weakening and stretching of the supporting tissues in the rectum and anus.
Remedies and Treatment Options
Here are some approaches to manage hemorrhoids:

Home Remedies:
High-Fiber Diet: Increase fiber intake to soften stools and prevent straining.
Topical Treatments:
Apply over-the-counter hemorrhoid creams or suppositories containing hydrocortisone.
Use pads with witch hazel or numbing agents.
Warm Sitz Baths: Soak the anal area in warm water for relief.
Pain Relievers: Acetaminophen, aspirin, or ibuprofen can help alleviate discomfort.
Medications:
For mild symptoms, consider creams, ointments, or suppositories available without a prescription.
These may contain ingredients like witch hazel, hydrocortisone, or lidocaine.
Minimally Invasive Procedures:
Rubber Band Ligation: A procedure to cut off circulation to the hemorrhoid using rubber bands.
External Hemorrhoid Thrombectomy: Removal of a painful blood clot within an external hemorrhoid.
Consult a Health Care Provider:
Seek professional advice if symptoms persist or worsen.
Rectal bleeding should not be assumed to be due to hemorrhoids; other conditions (including colorectal cancer) must be ruled out.
