Cause
sorry I didn't mention this earlier that this illness is comon in females and pregnant women .
Pregnancy has been noted to be one of the major causes of Heamorrhoid, due to increased body pressure in the lower rectum were blood vessels around the anus and the rectum will stretch under pressure and may be swollen or bulging forming piles. Apart from pregnancy it could be as a result of
Chronic constipation
Chronic Diarrhea
Lifting heavy weight
Etc but sometimes its always as a result of hereditary
Diagnosis and treatment
A Doctor can diagnose pile after carrying out a physical examination of the anus of a suspected patient asking questions on ;
hereditary traits
Mucus or bloody stool
Weight loss
Bowel mismanagement and maybe
Color of stool
But for internal stool a digital rectal examination is done. Sometimes pile do just resolve themselves but this is usually a rare case.
A change in life style is advised in other to manage pile, good diets equally give long way in reducing the risk of constipation, and kept your stool regular and soft; this involves eating good and well prepared and prescribed food from a good dietitians .water consumption is really essential to aid pile .
