HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhiods are clumps of dilated (enlarged) blood vessels in the anus and lower rectum.
The rectum is the last area of the large intestine before it exists the anus The anus is the end of the digestive tract where feces leaves the body.
Hemorrhoids sometimes swell when the veins enlarge and their walls become stretched, thin, and irrated by passing stool. Hemorrhoids are classified into two general categories:
* internal, originating in the rectum, and
*external, originating in the anus.
This condition has caused pain and irratation throughout human history. It is estimated that three out every four people will have hemorrhoids at some point in their lives.
Symptoms include:
*itching
*mucus discharge
*burning at the anus
*severe pain
*a sensation that the bowel is not really empty
*bleeding without pain.
Diet is believed to be a big factor in causing and preventing hemorrhoids. People who eat a high fiber diet are less likely to suffer from this condition. Those with a high processed diet face a higher hemorrhoid risk.
If some believes that he or she is infected, a visit to the doctor is a good advice.(MedicineNet)
