Hemorrhoids are prolapsed and inflamed veins in the rectum. Hemorrhoids form in the rectum from veins called the hemorrhoidal plexus. Because of this they are called hemorrhoids. Because they come from the hemorrhoidal plexus.  There are two set of veins: internal veins and external veins.

There are also two types of hemorrhoids and they are classified according to there location. When only the internal veins are affected they are called internal hemorrhoids . When the external veins are the ones affected then they are classified as external hemorrhoids.

The symptoms are slightly different for the two types of hemorrhoids. Internal hemorrhoids are many times asymptomatic. They manifest themselves mainly as bleeding.

Those who have been diagnosed with internal hemorrhoids are usually asymptomatic. But they may be surprised by seeing blood in the toilet after a bowel movement. Sometimes large amounts of bright red blood may be seen but sometimes just a streak of blood on the stool is seen.

Warning: This can also be a cancer sign, so please consult your medical doctor for a complete examination.

Signs and Symptoms present mostly in the external form of hemorrhoids are:

  • Bleeding after bowel movement or noticed while wiping the anal area
  • Pain and swelling to the point where it can make walking difficult
  • Itching and irritation around the anal area
  • Hemorrhoids protruding from your anus
  • A Sensitive and painful lump near your anus
  • Fecal Leakage

What Causes Hemorrhoids?

Many Life-Style factors are involved in the development of hemorrhoids. Some of these are:

1. Low amounts of fiber in the diet

2. Straining during a bowel movement

3. Obesity

4. Constipation

5. Lack of Exercise

But the thing is, you can prevent and improve hemorrhoids by modifying these life-style factors but many times you cannot correct them completely after they have developed.  These measures are necessary to prevent hemorrhoids and improve them but will not cure them completely.  If you are suffering from hemorrhoids you need to  modify these factors but you also need extra help to get rid of hemorrhoids completely.

Treatment options vary in the conventional and alternative medicine field. There is a diversity of remedies in the market for the relief of hemorrhoids. Understand that these only serve as symptomatic relief. They do not give complete relief from hemorrhoids!

Surgery is the method of choice to correct hemorrhoids in medicine but many times two thing may happen. One that is very litle known is that even after surgery these Hemorrhoids can COME BACK!! And number two is that unless you have a great insurance plan the procedure is very expensive.
