(EMAILWIRE.COM, November 14, 2011 ) SINGAPORE, SG -- External hemorrhoids are more commonly known as ‘piles.’ This is a common ailment that affects around 50% of the population by age 50, with some studies even pushing this figure to 75% of people. With such a large amount of the population suffering from external hemorrhoids, it’s strange that most people don’t know about it. The website HelpForHemorrhoids.org offers lots of information about this condition.
The Symptoms of External Hemorrhoids:
External hemorrhoids are the easier of the two ailments to identify and their symptoms are far
more apparent in everyday life. The most apparent symptom is the appearance of external lumps around the anus.
Although lumps are the most common symptom of
external hemorrhoids, there are many other symptoms as well. These include bleeding around the anus, pain while passing stools, and discomfort when sitting down.
The Symptoms of
Internal Hemorrhoids:
Internal
hemorrhoids are the harder ones to identify, especially if there are no external symptoms that can be seen. While there still may be some blood in the stool, internal hemorrhoids are known to give a feeling of still needing to pass a stool, even when one knows that they are finished.
These hemorrhoids may also make themselves known by giving the sufferer a constant itchy feeling around the anus. ItÂ’s impossible for a person to diagnose the condition by themselves alone; when someone thinks their pain and discomfort could be hemorrhoids, it is recommended that they go to a doctor for an official diagnosis.
Hemorrhoids during Pregnancy Are Commonplace:
Hemorrhoids during pregnancy are commonplace for women of any age whatsoever. In most cases a pregnant woman will suffer from external hemorrhoids, making them far easier to deal with. With that being said, the hemorrhoids during pregnancy will often abate soon after giving birth.
In some cases of persistent hemorrhoids, a womanÂ’s physician may recommend procedures to remove them completely. While these procedures are far more invasive than most, it is often a case of the greater good because of the relief that they bring. This is typically only done in severe cases.
Looking Out For
Bleeding Hemorrhoids:
Bleeding hemorrhoids are not only an inconvenience that can hamper a personÂ’s day-to-day life; they can also be extremely painful. Bleeding hemorrhoids are a clear sign that the person needs to see a doctor as soon as possible.
There are a number of causes for hemorrhoids to bleed. For example, simply straining while passing a stool can cause the hemorrhoids to bleed. For this condition, there are several different treatments that doctors may recommend.
