What Are Piles? Symptoms, Causes and Treatment Options

Piles (Hemorrhoids) are swollen blood vessels in and around the anus or lower rectum. They may cause discomfort, itching, swelling, or bleeding and can affect people of different ages.

Common Symptoms

  • Bright-red bleeding during or after bowel movements
  • Pain or discomfort around the anus
  • Itching or irritation
  • Swelling or a lump near the anus
  • Feeling of incomplete bowel emptying

Common Causes & Risk Factors

  • Chronic constipation and straining
  • Low-fiber diet
  • Inadequate water intake
  • Prolonged sitting or toilet sitting
  • Pregnancy
  • Overweight and limited physical activity
  • Family history

Piles Treatment Options

Treatment depends on the type and severity of piles. Lifestyle changes such as increasing dietary fiber, drinking adequate water, regular physical activity, and avoiding straining may help. Depending on the condition, doctors may recommend medicines, minimally invasive procedures, or surgical treatment.

Important: Persistent bleeding, pain, swelling, or recurring symptoms should be medically evaluated, as rectal bleeding can have causes other than piles.
