In order for us to differentiate this two related terms, here’s one thing you should keep in mind: Hemroids is the actual disease and hemorrhoids is the condition which is a symptom of hemroids. Hemorrhoids is an area around the anus where veins become dilated and the tissue swells, causing itching and pain.

These hemorrhoids can be seen usually at the outer part of the anus. Besides the outer swellings, hemorrhoids commonly occurs inside the rectum and you can only see them outside if they protrude at the outer part of the anus in the later stage. On the other hand, hemroids is the disease depicted when these swelling occurs in the anus inside and outside.

Hemorrhoids or piles can cause enough pain and embarrassment to people who have it. As I said it can stick out of the anus when the veins get large enough thus causing too much discomfort. The bad thing is when you have more than one of them it can literally block out the opening of your anus and will make your bowel too painful and gradually impossible to have if its untreated.

Some indication if you are having this disease would be stools with blood, itching, pain in the rectum area, and lumps. Swollen veins will bleed when they get irritated. And the other symptoms are quiet obvious and can cause discomfort.

You can have hemorrhoids is you are experiencing constipation that is not treated earlier, chronic diarrhea, obesity and pregnancy. It is also called a lifestyle disease because you can only have constipation when you are continuing in a very unhealthy diet. Our progressive life today is another factor that brings about constipation and eventually hemorrhoids. Usually when we sit in our office each day to work, we have less time for exercise, relaxation and of course good meals making our digestive system unhealthy.

To prevent this condition to occur to you, you need to practice eating healthy foods with high fiber in it such as cereals, beans, peas, green leafy vegetables, drink enough water and juices and fruits. Having a well balanced diet will ascertain that  you will have the correct amount of stools for regular and easy bowel movement. Also don’t forget to exercise daily and have enough time for relaxation. Following these simple preventions will lead you to a more healthy life without any fear in having hemroids and hemorrhoids in general.

Hemroids has only one cause and so many factors contributing to that cause. But first let me tell you what hemroids are. Hemroids is a disease wherein you experience the presence or swelling in the outer and inner parts of your anus. This can be itchy, painful and will produce stools with blood in it. Usually hemroids only occur in the inside of your anus and will only come externally in later stages wherein you can feel a lump protruding from your anus. This condition is painful and can cause the obstruction of your bowel movement.

So what cause this disease? Well, hemroids is cause by pressure in the veins inside and outside of your anus.

Increase pressure on these areas can be attributed to a lot of factors such as: constipation, sitting in long periods of time, obesity, pregnancy, lifting heavy objects, circulatory problems like varicose veins, diabetes and arterial sclerosis, poor eating habits, addiction to laxatives, stool softeners and other medications and too much pressure during bowel movements.

All the factors listed above can increase pressure to the veins in your anal area and will lead to hemroids if untreated. Here are something you can do to prevent this cause. Straining too much when going to the bathroom is bad for your anal health. You just need to let go of your bowel movement naturally and don’t force it to come out. Don’t sit too long too because it will just add pressure to your anal veins and will cause hemroids if continually done. If you have the chance try to get up, walk and exercise a bit at work to decrease the pressure in your anal area.

Hemroids will also be prevalent when you grow older. This is because the veins in our anal area will get weaker as we grow older causing them to swell and will cause discomfort. But you can eliminate temporarily this cause by practicing clean hygiene. I said temporarily because we cannot stop our age to go up and our body to weaken.

There are common factors of hemroids that you can prevent such as constipation, obesity and sex. If you just eat the right foods and not indulge in poor diet then you can prevent constipation. Good eating habits such as eating fiber rich food like peas, cereals, beans, green vegetables and fruits, and drinking enough water will certainly help soften your stools so as to avoid straining during bowel movements. Obesity can be prevented by maintaining the required weight in accordance to your age and height and of course proper diet. And for sex, you can avoid hemroids by not indulging into anal sex.

Medications that can cause constipation should not be taken in big dosages. If you can avoid it, don’t take medicines that will help eliminate constipation because it will only add more damages if you become dependent to it.

The best thing that you should do to prevent hemroids in the first place is to have a proper diet, make a point to exercise regularly and drink a lot of water. Take control of your lifestyle and go to the doctor if you think you have this disease.
