Hemorrhoids symptoms are:
- Bright red blood covering the stool, on toilet paper, or in the toilet bowl.
- Anal itching
- Painful swelling or hard lump around the anus.
Hemorrhoids are internal or external depends if they develop inside the passageway of the anus (internal) or around the anus (external).
Since the skin is more sensitive, the external hemorrhoids are more painful than internal, unless we’re talking about prolapse internal hemorrhoids, where the internal hemorrhoid prolapse (protrude) outside the anus and the pain is severe.
Hemorrhoids don’t just disappear by it self and bigger they are more problems they cause, so it is vital to treat them as soon as possible.
It is also important to determine what the cause of hemorrhoids is. The most common cause is constipation. Other reasons are: significant overweight, pregnancy, overeating, acid/alkaline imbalance, vitamin B-6 deficiency, fatigue liver, genetically predisposition. Sitting or standing in one position for long periods of time can also contribute to development of hemorrhoids.
Treatment options are: various creams, pills, medical injection, super freezing, tight rubber band placed around the base of each hemorrhoid, surgery or laser treatment.
Whatever treatment you’ll decide to do, remember to also treat the cause of your hemorrhoids, like take care of your digestion and regular soft bowel in case of constipation (fiber rich diet), if you’re overweight – lose weight, in case of acid/alkaline imbalance pay attention by your food to eat food that through the digestion system is giving you proper acidity. You can buy a home test for acid/alkaline imbalance, if you don’t want to visit your doctor. The vast majority of us are having low alkaline pH, due to improper nutrition.
Unless you’re having constipation (this you can know by yourself), before doing experiments and try to guess what is the cause of your hemorrhoids, go visit your doctor, make all proper test and than decide for the treatment of hemorrhoids including changing of your diet, if necessary.
