What exactly are Hemorrhoids?

Hemorrhoids are the most common diseases in anal and rectal disorders, proportion of the number of patients accounting for 20-45% of the population (mainly men). Hemorrhoids (Piles) are commonly caused by inflammation or swelling of blood vessels in the anus. Hemorrhoids are three types of External Hemorrhoids, Internal Hemorrhoids, and Mixed Hemorrhoids. If you do not know how to prevent, early signs and treatments, this "hard to tell” disease can cause serious complications.

Causes of Hemorrhoids

Bệnh trĩ thường do các nguyên nhân táo bón hoặc tiệu chảy, ăn uống ít chất xơ, thói quen ngồi vệ sinh không đúng cách, do rặn quá mức khi đi cầu…

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Tan Cuong, Medical director at City International Hospital said: "The simplest way to treat patients is to eat more fiber each day. A diet rich in fiber, drinking enough water every day and exercising are the best ways to help ease constipation."

Signs and symptoms of hemorrhoids may include:

  • Painless bleeding during bowel movements — you might notice small amounts of bright red blood on your toilet paper or in the toilet

  • Itching or irritation in your anal region

  •  Pain or discomfort

  •  Swelling around your anus

  •  A lump near your anus, which may be sensitive or painful (may be a thrombosed hemorrhoid)

Hemorrhoids are quite sensitive, so many patients are hesitate to go to medical examination and treatment until the disease changes to severe symptoms with pain, bleeding during the bowel, making life difficult. Actually, if you have trouble finding the right hemorrhoids, patients will soon be treated more easily.
