Causes of Piles (Hemorrhoids)
Hemorrhoids or Piles can occur due to genetic factors when passed on to a child from their parent. So, if your parents suffered from hemorrhoids, you are also likely to be affected by them in the future or might already have.
Consistently being obese, heavy lifting, or having other persistent on your body could also increase the risk of getting piles.
If you stand too much without taking any sitting breaks can be another reason for hemorrhoids. Consistent anal sex and diarrhea are other common reasons to increase the risk of developing hemorrhoids.
You may develop piles even when you’re pregnant. When your uterus enlarges, it puts pressure on a vein in the colon and causes a bulge.
Reason for Increased Pressure in the Vessels
While the presence of piles is considered normal anatomy, many people and healthcare professionals refer to it as an abnormal condition due to swelling and other problems.
Pile swelling occurs when the pressure increases in small blood vessels. This further causes these vessels to increase in size and lead to various symptoms.
The increased pressure in the vessels is caused due to various factors, such as:
- Acute and chronic diarrhea
- Prolonged sitting on a toilet seat can also increase pressure inside the hemorrhoid blood vessels.
- Colon cancer
- Obesity
- Smaller caliber stool and low fiber diet cause an individual to strain while having a bowel movement and increase pressure in the blood vessels.
- Prolonged sitting on a toilet seat can also increase pressure inside the hemorrhoid blood vessels.
- Pregnancy is also related to hemorrhoid swelling and is likely to increase the pressure of the enlarged uterus on the anus and rectum. Additionally, the hormonal changes due to pregnancy weaken muscles supporting the anus and rectum
Treatment For Piles/Hemorrhoids
Pain relief: To relieve pain, sit in a bathtub full of warm water for 10 minutes every day. You may even try sitting on a warm water bottle for relieving the pain of piles. If the pain is unbearable, try an over-the-counter suppository, cream, or ointment to relieve itching and burning.
Fiber supplements: To avoid constipation, take over-the-counter fiber supplements for softening stools.
Topical creams: You may even try some over-the-counter topical creams like hemorrhoid or hydrocortisone cream.
Medical procedures: If home remedies don’t work, your doctor can recommend using a rubber band ligation to cut off the circulation of piles by placing the rubber band around it. Due to a lack of circulation, the hemorrhoid is forced to shrink. But only get this procedure done by a medical professional – NOT at home. If this treatment doesn’t work, the doctor can perform injection therapy, known as sclerotherapy, to reduce the hemorrhoid's size.
