A common and often embarrassing condition that affects both men and women. These veins can swell and become irritated, causing a range of uncomfortable and painful symptoms, as well as embarrassing ones. From a scientific standpoint, hemorrhoids are also known as almoranas.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Types of hemorrhoids<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are two main types of hemorrhoids that people are affected by. Internal and external hemorrhoids. Internal hemorrhoids are located inside the rectum and often cause no pain. Common symptoms include bleeding during bowel movements and anal itching. External hemorrhoids, on the other hand, are located under the skin around the anus and can be painful. In fact, they can cause swelling, pain and itching. People who have them may also feel discomfort when sitting, especially for a long time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Symptoms<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The symptoms of hemorrhoids can range from mild to severe. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bright red blood in the stool or on the toilet paper after a bowel movement.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Itching or irritation around the anus.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pain during bowel movements.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Swelling or painful lumps around the anus.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A feeling of incomplete emptying, or of emptiness in the anus, after a bowel movement.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Treatments and remedies<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are several treatment options for hemorrhoids, depending on how severe the symptoms are. The foundation is a change in lifestyle. It is essential to make changes to the diet, increasing fiber and fluids. These elements can relieve constipation and reduce the risk of developing them. Avoiding holding back a bowel movement is another valuable help.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Medications for hemorrhoids<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are over-the-counter medications such as creams, ointments or suppositories containing hydrocortisone or other substances. They are meant to reduce itching and inflammation and improve quality of life. In fact, the sensations and symptoms have a heavy impact on managing daily life.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When to intervene<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In some cases, outpatient treatment may be necessary. These are minimally invasive procedures such as rubber band ligation of hemorrhoids or sclerotherapy. The latter technique is a medical procedure used to treat varicose veins and superficial varices. It involves injecting a chemical solution (a sclerosing agent) directly into the dilated or varicose veins. The sclerosing agent irritates the walls of the veins, causing the veins to close up gradually over time. As a result, blood can no longer pool in the treated veins, and the varicose veins tend to disappear. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both procedures, rubber band ligation and sclerotherapy, reduce blood flow to the swollen hemorrhoids. In more severe or persistent situations, however, the specialist &#8211; the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rah.it\/proctologia\/\">proctologist<\/a> &#8211; may recommend surgery to remove the hemorrhoids.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prevention<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Preventing hemorrhoids may be possible with some measures that are effective.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep a diet rich in fiber and drink plenty of water to prevent constipation.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exercise regularly to improve blood circulation.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid holding back a bowel movement.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid straining during bowel movements.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use moist wipes instead of rough toilet paper.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Statistics<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hemorrhoids are common. Most people who are affected develop them in adulthood, often between the ages of 45 and 65. Fortunately, most cases can be treated successfully through lifestyle changes and medications.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hemorrhoids are swollen veins in the rectum or anus.
