Hemorrhoids (HEM-uh-roids), also called piles, are swollen veins in your a**s and lower re**um, similar to varicose veins. Hemorrhoids can develop inside the re**um (internal hemorrhoids) or under the skin around the a**s (external hemorrhoids).

hemorrhoids are associated with
chronic constipation,

A diet low in fiber
A**l s*x

hemorrhoids
These are under the skin around your a**s. Signs and symptoms might include:
Itching or irritation in your a**l region
Pain or discomfort
Swelling around your a**s
Bleeding
Internal hemorrhoids lie inside the re**um. You usually can't see or feel them, and they rarely cause discomfort. But straining or irritation when passing stool can cause:
Painless bleeding during bowel movements. You might notice small amounts of bright red blood on your toilet tissue or in the toilet.
A hemorrhoid to push through the a**l opening (pr*****ed or protruding hemorrhoid), resulting in pain and irritation.
If blood pools in an external hemorrhoid and forms a clot (thrombus), it can result in:
Severe pain
Swelling
Inflammation
A hard lump near your a**s
Rarely, hemorrhoids could lead to problems such as:
Skin tags. When the clot in a thrombosed hemorrhoid dissolves, you may have a bit of skin left over, which could get irritated.
Anemia. You might lose too much blood if you have a hemorrhoid that lasts a long time and bleeds a lot.
Infection. Some external hemorrhoids have sores that get infected.
Strangulated hemorrhoid. Muscles can block the blood flow to a pr*****ed hemorrhoid. This may be very painful and need surgery.
To prevent hemorrhoid flare-ups, try these steps:
Eat fiber. It helps food pass through your system easier. A good way to get it is from plant foods: vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts, seeds, beans, and legumes. Aim for 20 to 35 grams of dietary fiber a day.
Use fiber supplements. Over-the-counter supplements can help soften stool if you don’t get enough fiber from food. Start with a small amount, and slowly use more.
Drink water. It will help you avoid hard stools and constipation, so you strain less during bowel movements. Fruits and vegetables, which have fiber, also have water in them.
Exercise. Physical activity, like walking a half-hour every day, keeps your blood and your bowels moving.
Don't wait to go. Use the toilet as soon as you feel the urge.
Don’t strain during a bowel movement or sit on the toilet for long periods. This puts more pressure on your veins.
Keep a healthy weight.

If other treatments do not work or if the hemorrhoid is very large, your may recommend minor surgery to remove it.
