piles

Overview 

Piles is a common condition, usually caused by the build-up of excessive amounts of waste material (pus) in your anal canal. The infection can cause symptoms such as pain and itching. There are many different types of piles, which have different causes, symptoms and treatments.

What is piles disease?


Piles disease is a condition that causes swelling in the rectum. It's caused by a build-up of tissue, which can make it difficult for you to pass stool and cause pain.

In some cases, piles doesn't cause any symptoms at all. If this is the case for you, talk with your doctor about getting checked out regularly to see if anything has changed since last year's visit.
Piles disease can be treated with medications such as corticosteroids (steroid medicine) or antibiotics like metronidazole (brand name Flagyl).
If you experience symptoms of piles, your doctor can help determine the cause and recommend the best treatment. Treatment options include surgery or a procedure called sclerotherapy, which uses medicine to shrink the blood vessels that supply blood to the hemorrhoids.

Blood in stool: You may experience bright red blood in your stool, which is a symptom of piles. This can be alarming, but it's actually common and shouldn't cause you too much concern unless it happens often or if you have other symptoms like fever or pain. If bleeding occurs more than once per day for several days and doesn't stop by itself within 24 hours, it could be a sign of more serious issues that require medical attention from your doctorIf you have symptoms of piles, your doctor will examine you and ask about your medical history. Your doctor may also recommend an anal exam to check for signs of hemorrhoids or other problems in your rectum. If they think you have piles, they may order further tests to confirm the diagnosis.

The following are common causes of bleeding piles:

-Infection or inflammation of your rectum, anus or lower gastrointestinal tract.
-Hemorrhoids are swollen veins that can form inside the anus and lower rectum. Hemorrhoids are a common condition, especially among pregnant women and those who spend long hours on their feet.


Symptoms of piles disease

Piles disease is a chronic condition that causes painful swelling of the anus and inflammation. It's most often caused by an infection called Proctitis, but it can also be caused by other conditions.

Painful swelling of the anus: Piles may cause pain or discomfort in your rectum, which can make sitting down uncomfortable and sleeping difficult. The pain usually feels like a dull ache rather than sharp stabbing pain that comes from other kinds of medical conditions (like hemorrhoids).

Bleeding from the anus: Blood may become trapped in tissues around your rectum and cause irritation as it pools under pressure inside your body cavity--an effect called hematochezia or hematuria, which means "bloody stool." This can happen at any time during an episode of piles, but most commonly happens while you're resting on your side with legs elevated so they don't touch the ground below them anymore; when this happens repeatedly over time your doctor might order tests to determine whether there's another underlying problem elsewhere inside your body causing this particular symptom instead!

Itching around the anus: Itching around your anus is a common symptom of piles, and it can be extremely annoying if not treated. The itching may be worse when you're sitting down or lying in bed at night because pressure on the anus from these positions causes blood flow to slow down, which makes it easier for bacteria to grow inside of your body and cause infection.

Types of piles disease

Piles disease is a condition that affects the lower part of your rectum and anus, also known as the fissure. There are several types of piles disease:

Internal piles (also called internal hemorrhoids). These are small growths inside your rectum that can cause pain and bleeding if they become larger. They're often caused by constipation, diarrhea or both.

External piles (also called external hemorrhoids). These are small lumps on either side of your anus that cause it to protrude when you sit down or stand up quickly after using the toilet; this is called "popping" because it makes a popping sound when you do so!

Causes of piles disease

Piles disease is a common condition that can be caused by slow, gradual and constant pressure on the veins of the anus. Piles disease is common in pregnant women and people who are constipated. It's also more likely to occur in people with a sedentary lifestyle or who are overweight or obese.

Diagnosis of piles disease

Diagnosis of piles disease is usually done by a doctor who examines your anus and rectum. A doctor will ask you about your symptoms, such as itching or pain in the area near the anus. You may also be asked questions about any surgeries that have been done to fix or remove piles (such as removal of the colon). A doctor may also perform tests on your blood to check for other diseases that can cause similar symptoms to those caused by piles disease.
Doctors may also use a special tool called a proctoscope to examine your anus and rectum. A proctoscope is a small camera that can be inserted into your rectum to view the inside of your colon. The camera is inserted through the anus and placed in the rectum so doctors can view any abnormalities in the tissue.
If there is any doubt about the diagnosis, a doctor may perform additional tests, such as an examination of stool samples or a colonoscopy. A colonoscopy is a test that uses a flexible tube (called an endoscope) with a tiny camera on the end to look at your entire colon and rectum. This test can help detect other conditions that may be causing symptoms similar to those caused by piles disease.
The test is performed while you're awake. Anesthesia is not required and sedation medication may be given if needed. Your doctor will use a water-soluble dye to highlight blood vessels in the colon so they can be seen clearly on an X-ray image.

Piles is a common condition that affects women.

Piles is a common condition that affects women. It's also called haemorrhoids, and it can cause pain or discomfort. But piles aren't painful unless you have an infected sore on the outside of your anus (anus). If you do experience pain from piles, talk with your doctor about treatment options so that you can get relief as quickly as possible!

Conclusion

Piles disease is a condition that affects women. It's common, but it can be treated with surgery or medications. If you think you have piles and want to talk to your doctor about treatment.
