Some Easy Hemorrhoid Remedies
June 24, 2009
As laypersons, we consider hemorrhoids as abnormal developments in the anal canals. However, your physician will tell you that hemorrhoids are present in every person. Only when these tissues and blood vessels present in the hemorrhoidal cushions become abnormally large, do we suffer from pains and discomfort. Hemorrhoids are extremely painful conditions.
Causes of hemorrhoids
There are two types of hemorrhoids – external hemorrhoids and internal hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoid formed at the top of the anal canal is known as internal hemorrhoid. External hemorrhoid develops at the lower end of the anal canal. Hemorrhoid problem is largely prevalent among people between 45 and 65 years of age. Low fiber intake and chronic constipations are primarily responsible for development of hemorrhoids. Women often suffer from hemorrhoids during pregnancy. Pelvic tumors can also be responsible for hemorrhoids.
