    Understanding External Or Prolapsed Hemorrhoids

    By Brian on Tuesday, February 14th, 2012 | No Comments

    <p>By Jeff Slokum

    Hemorrhoids are swollen and enlarged anal veins. They appear due to numerous causes such as sitting on the toilet too long, straining when passing a bowel movement, and they are sometimes caused by the strain and excess weight of a fetus during pregnancy.

    There are internal hemorrhoids and external, or prolapsed hemorrhoids. Internal hemorrhoids occur high up in the rectum and generally the only symptom you will notice is some bright red blood on the stool, or in the toilet. It is when they prolapse they can become problematic.

    Some prolapsed hemorrhoids will only bulge out with a bowel movement and will spontaneously go back into the rectum. Some hemorrhoids prolapse with a bowel movement and can be pushed back inside the rectum. A prolapsed hemorrhoid that cannot be pushed back into the rectum may require surgery. These severe hemorrhoids may also prolapse with coughing and sneezing. They may also have a chronic mucus type discharge.

    If you're lucky, and diligent, you can treat some hemorrhoids with surgery. The first recommendation is to increase the fiber in your diet. This can easily be done by taking a fiber supplement on a daily basis. Increase your water intake to help keep your stools soft. Take a stool softener, following the manufacturers recommendations. When you wipe don't use toilet paper, use a cotton ball or pad pre moistened with witch haze. You can buy pre moistened pads at your local drug store. For itching you an use any of the numerous over the counter hemorrhoidal preparations.

    If the above recommendations don't help, your physician may recommend hemorrhoid surgery. Small hemorrhoids can be "banded". A rubber band is placed around the base of the hemorrhoid. This band stops the blood circulation that feeds the hemorrhoid. The hemorrhoid shrivels and withers away. Some surgeons treat hemorrhoids with sclerosing agents, which do the same thing as a band.

    Laser coagulation an be performed. With laser coagulation a small electrical current is applied to the hemorrhoid via a probe. This electrical current causes the blood flow to the hemorrhoid to stop, causing it to wither away.

    With larger hemorrhoids surgical removal is performed, usually with local or spinal anesthesia. After the hemorrhoid is removed gauze packing is used to help reduce bleeding. There is generally a 4-5 day period of "down time" following this surgery.

    Any rectal bleeding should be checked by your physician.

    Diet For Hemorrhoids | Prevent Constipation To Cure Hemorrhoids

    By Brian on Friday, February 3rd, 2012 | No Comments

    Among all the different causes that leads to hemorrhoids, constipation is probably the major cause and one that causes hemorrhoids to happen over and over again. Constipation occurs when there is too little bowel movement and the stool is not excreted as often as it should be.  Because the stool is kept for a longer period of time in the rectum, whatever extra moisture is reabsorbed by the body which causes it to harden even more.  The hard stool will then require extra straining in order to be removed from the body.  This over straining increases the pressure to the rectal veins which will eventually cause them to swell.  At the same time, the hard stool will rub roughly against the anal walls, weakening it more.  It is all these factors that will soon lead to a hemorrhoid.

    Constipation can happen from a number of reasons but the two main causes for constipation is dehydration and lack of fiber in the diet.

    Dehydration prevents the body from releasing any extra moisture in the stool, causing it to be hard and rough.  In order to be properly hydrated, drink lots of water each day and eat juicy fruits.  Avoid too much salt as will increase the dehydration in the body.  Also avoid drinking alcohol as this too will cause your body to be dehydrated.

    Another reason for the stool to be dry and hard is keeping it for an extended period of time inside the rectum, allowing extra time for the body to reabosrb back the extra moisture in the stool.  The best way to ensure that constipation does not happen is to go when you have to and not to put off nature's call.

    A diet rich in fiber is the ultimate way to prevent constipation.  It is extremely easy to increase your fiber consumption.  All it takes is to gradually increase the amount of fruit, vegetables and whole grains that you consume each day.  But when increasing your fiber intake, remember to also drink lots of water because taking too little water will make your constipation worst.

    Some of the rich sources of fiber include:

    1. Whole-grain foods (such as bran cereals) and breads (made with whole wheat grains).

    2. Fresh fruits (including the skin and pulp).

    3. Dried or stewed fruits (for example prunes, raisins or apricots).

    4. Root vegetables (such as carrots, turnips and potatoes).

    5. Raw or fresh vegetables, such as cabbage. (Lettuce is actually low in fiber.)

    Lastly, exercise is also the key to preventing constipation.  A good cardio-vascular exercise will help to stimulate bowel movement.  This will encourage your body to remove the stool more often, therefore ensuring that it is always soft and will not cause over straining.

    Preventing constipation is a key essential to your search for a permanent cure for hemorrhoids.  Through a proper hemorrhoids diet and enough, your bowel movements will be frequent and healthy and you will be well on your way to a quick hemorrhoids cure.

    Hemorrhoid Causes And Treatments

    By Brian on Wednesday, December 28th, 2011 | No Comments

    <p>By Jeff Slokum

    Hemorrhoids are a very common medical problem affecting both men and women. It is estimated that over 80% of Americans will have some dealing with hemorrhoids in their lifetime. Over half a million people seek medical help for hemorrhoids annually in the United States, and of that half million at least ten percent undergo surgical procedures for relief of their hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids are usually worse with age and seem to have a great impact on people between the ages of 45 and 65. Hemorrhoids are very common during pregnancy due to the extra weight of the fetus. Generally the hemorrhoids associated with pregnancy are only temporary.

    Hemorrhoids are caused when the veins around the anus and lower rectum become swollen and inflamed. This inflammation can occur from a variety of reasons but most medical professionals believe it is caused by straining when trying to have a bowel movement (constipation) and too much time spent on the toilet.

    The majority of hemorrhoid suffers can be treated without any type of surgery. The first thing to do is to relieve the symptoms. Sitz baths are recommended. Sit in the bath, with a few inches of warm water fifteen minutes two to three times a day. Instead of wiping the area with toilet paper, use pads that are pre moistened with witch hazel, or cotton balls soaked in witch hazel instead. Make sure the area is dry. If the steps above don't help relieve the symptoms, you can try the application of an over-the-counter hemorrhoidal cream to the area which will also help relieve itching and burning.

    Aside from these measures most medical professionals suggest that you increase the fiber in your diet to help to avoid constipation. Take an over-the-counter fiber supplement. Increasing your fluid intake can help make a softer stool. You may want to talk to your doctor about taking an over-the-counter stool softener. Avoid sitting or standing for long periods of time.

    Any bleeding from the rectum should be checked by a physician.
