Piles or Anal Fissure - Treatment For Piles

Internal hemorrhoids

People only become aware of piles when they bleed or there is pain. Piles are also known as hemorrhoids or rectal lumps. Piles are actually a rather common condition. What happens is that there will be swollen veins around the lower end which are caused by increased pressure. The most common cause of piles or hemorrhoids is straining during bowel movement.

Internal hemorrhoids are located inside the rectum or anal canal, and are usually not painful. This is because the anal canal does not have many nerve endings. Indeed, most people are not aware that they have internal hemorrhoids until a hard stool rubbing against them cause these hemorrhoids to rupture and bleed.

Left untreated, some internal hemorrhoids can "prolapse" or be pushed out of the anal opening. Sometimes, the sphincter muscle can close shut in a spasm and trap this prolapsed hemorrhoid outside the anus. This cuts off the blood circulation, and creates a strangulated hemorrhoid.

Some prolapsed hemorrhoids can be manually "pushed" back inside the anus. Advanced cases of prolapsed hemorrhoids, however, must be surgically treated.

Prolapsed and strangulated hemorrhoid are a serious medical condition that requires immediate attention. Also, bleeding of any amount should be checked by a doctor since it may be an indication of more serious conditions, such as colorectal cancer.
