All you need to know about Hemorhoids and its treatment

Hemorrhoids is a protruding and enlarge veins in the wall or lining of the anus or anal region. It is usually caused by a habitual constipation. If untreated hemorrhoid becomes worst, and protruding is prominent. A hemorrhoid develops in two places. First it develops in the internal veins and develop internal hemorrhoid. Internal hemorrhoids cannot be seen or felt until it reaches its terminal or severe stage. Second it develops in the external veins and develops external hemorrhoids. External hemorrhoid is visible from the anus and it can be felt.

Hemorrhoid is accompanied with constipation and in making a great effort to remove the bowels. Hemorrhoid also sometimes is cause by giving birth. This is because of the fact that when giving birth you exerts more effort and putting pressure more to the anus. Increase pressure makes the veins protrude that eventually becomes hemorrhoid. The symptom of hemorrhoid is so simple. A person who suffers hemorrhoid or about to develop hemorrhoid experiences painless bleeding which visible and can be seen on the outside of the stool. In an advance cases hemorrhoids may lead to a condition known as prolapsed hemorrhoids. This happens when the internal hemorrhoids swell and then extend through the anal region. When the hemorrhoid extend to the anal region you will feel it outside the anus. You can gently push back the anus to temporarily solve the problem. But there are times when hemorrhoids cannot be pressed, if this happen the swelling even more aggravated and it may trapped the anus. If hemorrhoid is trapped in the anus, bowel movement is very difficult that when this stage comes, you will have no other resort but to seek professional advice. When the hemorrhoid is trapped itchiness is develop due to the fact that anal region is exposed outside. The itching condition is called pruritus.

External hemorrhoids in the other hand, in its advance cases develop a painful condition which is called thrombosis. This happen when hemorrhoid develops blood clots. Blood clots. Blood clots increases swelling because the normal blood flow to the anal region is suppress, therefore it causes hemorrhoid to even swell and pain becomes very remarkable. The urge to remove bowel will make it even more painful, sometimes the pain is unbearable because of the pressure to the rectum. When this happen the person with hemorrhoid seek the help of the medical specialist. Protruding veins around the anal region depletes stools in coming out, and surgery is advice.
