Hemorrhoids are a painful
disease in which the tissues of the anus become swollen. In fact, there are
some veins in the anus internally. Whose work is to draw blood back, but
sometimes these veins become swollen due to any pressure and then this causes the
problem of hemorrhoids. Constipation usually puts pressure on these veins,
causing them to swell or become infected. In fact, they perform a gentle
regurgitation, so that there is no difficulty in expelling the bowel.
Hemorrhoids are a very
common disease, but most people are reluctant to consult a doctor for
treatment. A conservative estimate is that about 75% of people suffer from
hemorrhoids. Common causes of the disease include constipation, diarrhea,
prolonged sedentary work, unbalanced diet, excessive consumption of heavy,
poultry, sour and greasy foods, and overeating.
In addition, people who sit
for long periods of time or lose a lot of weight for defecation also often
suffer from this disease. If treated in time, the disease can be easily
controlled. In addition, the disease is hereditary, which can be passed from
parents to children.
Hemorrhoids during
pregnancy are a common medical problem in women. In fact, as the baby grows in
the mother's womb, the uterine pressure builds up on the surrounding blood
vessels. That is causing the blood to stop flowing, and this blockage of the
blood pressure puts pressure on the veins to cause hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids go
away on their own after childbirth, but in some cases can become a permanent
illness.
Hemorrhoids are usually
divided into two types, one called internal and the other external. Internal
hemorrhoids spread to the inside of the anus, while the outer hemisphere is
limited to the edges of the anus. Sometimes in hemorrhoids, the ducts also come
out through the rectum. If there is bleeding from them, it is usually called
bloody hemorrhoids and if there is no bleeding, it is called hemorrhoids.
When the ducts come out, it
is called "prolapsed" in medical terms. However, the common symptoms
of hemorrhoids are stiffness around the anus, pain, irritation, itching, with
or after bowel movements. Come out in a bunch and so on. Sometimes the patient
feels heaviness in the anus all the time despite the bowel movement.
In hemorrhoids, the ducts
become dark blue and there is no pain, but more or less bleeding occurs before
or after the discharge, while external hemorrhoids are painful. However, in
internal hemorrhoids, when blood clots form in the arteries, there is severe
pain and surgery is inevitable.
Note that the pain is
usually caused by Fissure and Fistula Anal. Hemorrhoids are diagnosed with a
small instrument. Most patients with hemorrhoids use home remedies, such as
vegetables and fruits, which prevent constipation but are a temporary
treatment.
In addition, frequent use
of plain water keeps the waste soft. However, in modern times an "elastic
band" treatment is used for hemorrhoids, in which the patient does not have
any discomfort or needs to be anesthetized. In addition, different types of
injections are given to cure the disease.
However, the elastic band treatment is much easier and longer-lasting. Also, there are several precautions to take to prevent hemorrhoids. For example, use a balanced diet and water, do not sit for long periods of time, be careful with spicy foods, fried foods, and do light exercise daily. Hence, any hesitation to see a doctor can make the disease worse.
