Haemorrhoids
Haemorrhoids are swollen veins in the lower rectum or anus that can cause discomfort, pain, and bleeding. They are a common condition that affects millions of people worldwide.
Types of haemorrhoids:
1. Internal haemorrhoids: Located inside the rectum, these are typically painless but may cause bleeding.
2. External haemorrhoids: Located under the skin around the anus, these can be painful and may cause itching and swelling.
Treatment options:
1. Dietary changes (increasing fiber and water intake)
2. Over-the-counter pain relievers and creams
3. Sitz baths (warm water soaks)
4. Medical procedures (such as rubber band ligation or sclerotherapy)
5. Surgery (in severe cases)
Prevention tips:
1. Eat a balanced diet with plenty of fiber
2. Stay hydrated
3. Exercise regularly
4. Avoid straining during bowel movements
5. Practice good bowel habits
If you’re experiencing symptoms of haemorrhoids, you can consult with Dr Javed Hussain, Laparoscopic and Laser surgeon
