Haemorrhoid is a bump or swollen vein in the lower rectum or anus. While haemorrhoids can be embarrassing, one should not hesitate to seek help, as early treatment can stop further complications. For some people, piles are external, while for others, they are internal. Today, let’s dive into the symptoms of both external and internal haemorrhoids.
Indicators
Common symptoms include discomfort while sitting, standing or walking along with pain, itching, tenderness and occasional bleeding. Recognising these symptoms is essential for early and effective management.
Typically present with symptoms such as mucus discharge, the presence of blood clots in the toilet and internal swelling. Some symptoms are also characterised by painless bleeding during bowel movements.
It often displays signs of inflammation, such as redness, around the affected area.
This disease is classified into four stages based on prolapse.
When there is minimal bleeding, that happens occasionally after passing the stool out of the body.
When a haemorrhoid prolapses during defecation, it then goes back to its place.
Plunging of tissue that can be manually fixed on one’s own.
Plunged tissue remains in the same place and cannot be fixed by going back.
Understanding these stages is essential to prevent any further complications.
Here’s how diagnosing works
Doctors ask patients if they have been facing symptoms for a long time and might ask about their overall health.
The doctor performs an anoscopy process by gently putting a finger in the anus to determine if there are internal haemorrhoids.
This process involves a tube that has light, it is inserted into the anus to view the deeper side of the rectum.
Factors causing haemorrhoids
- Diarrhoea is the main cause because when the body faces bowl moments repeatedly, it disturbs the rectal area of the anus.
- Straining while passing out bowls turns out to be a reason for causing haemorrhoids.
- Sitting for long periods on the toilet also causes haemorrhoids by slowing blood flow and leading to swelling.
- Poor diet also causes haemorrhoids as it causes constipation, resulting in developed haemorrhoids.
- Sometimes, when women give birth, and during the delivery, they put a strain on the anus, which also results in haemorrhoids.
- Excessive overeating forces weight on the second half of the body, which leads to haemorrhoids taking place.
- Genetics is also the cause of making them more prone to developing haemorrhoids.
