|
|

|

Sedentary habits (to sit at the same place for long time) |
|
|
|

|
|
|
Liver disease (due to portal vein obstruction) |
|
|
Faulty bowel movement, e.g. spending long time in the toilet, excessive use of laxatives and purgatives (strong laxatives), straining during defecation. |
|
|
|
Whatever the reason may be, the tissues supporting the haemorrhoidal veins; stretch and hence rectal veins dilate; their walls become thin and piles polyps develop, which on more stretching and pressure bleed and protrude out of the anus. |
|
|
|
If piles or haemorrhoids lead to cancer. |
| |
|
There is no relationship between piles and cancer, but the symptoms of bleeding look like to those of colorectal cancer and other diseases of intestine e.g. ulcerative colitis etc. |
|
|
|
So, it is necessary that all the present symptoms are investigated properly by the physician especially proctologist trained in treating diseases of the colon and rectum. |
|
|
|
Patient should not rely on self-medication or the treatment given by ordinary physician, who without proper check-up gives the medicines which sometime may not be of much use. |
|
|
|
So, the specialist doctor first evaluates the symptoms after check-up and prescribes the proper effective treatment. |
