What Are Piles? Causes, Symptoms & Modern Treatment
Piles — also called hemorrhoids or bawasir — are swollen blood vessels in and around the anus and lower rectum. They are extremely common, affecting nearly 1 in 2 adults at some point in life. The good news is that today’s treatments are painless, scientific and highly effective.
What Exactly Are Piles?
Piles form when the cushions of veins inside the anal canal become enlarged. They can be internal (inside the rectum) or external (under the skin around the anus).
Common Causes
- Long-standing constipation and straining
- Low-fibre diet
- Sitting for hours (office jobs)
- Pregnancy
- Obesity and lack of exercise
Symptoms to Watch For
- Bright red bleeding while passing stool
- A lump or swelling near the anus
- Itching, burning or pain
- A feeling of incomplete evacuation
If you notice any of these, please consult a qualified proctologist promptly.
