Hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoids are enlarged and swollen blood
vessels located in the lower innards of the
rectum and the anus. The blood vessels swell due
to increased pressure. This usually is caused by
increased pressure in the lower abdomen. Some
common causes include constipation, diarrhoea,
during pregnancy, being obese, rectal cancer and
inflammatory bowel diseases among others.

Types of Hemorrhoids
Internal Hemorrhoids
Situated on the inner lining of the rectum and
can only be felt once they prolapse, i.e move out
of place or slip out into the anus causing
itching and pain.
Located on the extremities of the body beneath
the skin of the anus. Symptoms include bleeding
while discharging bowels.
External Hemorrhoids

Thrombosed External Hemorrhoids
This occurs when the blood clots inside the
vessel and cause swelling and pain as well.

Over The Counter Medications Used For Treating
Hemorrhoids
Several treatments are available in the market
for hemorrhoids, and include home remedies as
well, for example, over-the-counter medicine like
stool softeners and creams or suppositories to
shrink and decrease inflammation of the affected
tissue and hemorrhoid wipes to help provide
relief to the affected area. Treating enlarged
hemorrhoids is important, because they tend to
get worse over time. Hemorrhoids are treated with
a variety of measures including diet,
over-the-counter medicine such as gels, creams,
lotions, anti-inflammatory drugs, hemorrhoid
wipes and pads. Other procedures include
sclerotherapy, rubber band litigation and surgery
which is always the last resort.

Natural Remedies For Hemorrhoids
Sitting in warm water 3-4 times a day helps
reduce the discomfort and inflammation that comes
from hemorrhoids. But remember to dry off
propery once done, after each bath to avoid any
itching around the anus region.
Increasing fluid intake, especially water will
help reduce the effect of this condition since it
decreases the effects of fiber and stops or
prevents constipation.
