Everything You Need to Know About Hemorrhoids — And How to Find Relief
Hemorrhoids are more common than most people realize and yet they remain one of the most under-discussed health issues. Today, we break down what hemorrhoids are, who's at risk, and how the Hermitage Gel can offer fast, effective relief.
What are hemorrhoids?
Hemorrhoids — Commonly referred to as "piles" — are swollen lumps that develop inside or around the anus (back passage). Sometimes likened to varicose veins of the anus, they occur when a weakness in the wall of the anal canal causes the lining to thicken. The veins within that lining can then enlarge, giving rise to a hemorrhoid.
The result? Bleeding, pain, and persistent discomfort that can seriously affect daily life.
Types of hemorrhoids/Piles
- Internal hemorrhoids: Located just inside the anus. Large ones may protrude outward — a condition called a prolapse.
- External hemorrhoids: Found outside the anus, often causing itching, swelling, and discomfort around the rectal opening.
Who is more likely to get hemorrhoids?
Hemorrhoids don't discriminate, but certain habits and life circumstances significantly raise your risk. You may be more susceptible if you:
- Strain during bowel movements
- Spend long periods sitting on the toilet
- Experience chronic constipation or diarrhea
- Eat a low-fiber diet
- Are over 50 years of age
- Are currently pregnant
- Regularly lift heavy objects
Potential Challenges
Left untreated, hemorrhoids can progress and lead to more serious concerns. Here are some complications to be aware of:
- Blood clots forming in an external hemorrhoid (thrombosed hemorrhoid), causing sudden, severe pain.
- Skin tags — extra folds of skin left behind after a blood clot in an external hemorrhoid dissolves.
- Infection of a sore on an external hemorrhoid, which can worsen symptoms if left unaddressed.
- Strangulated hemorrhoid — when blood supply to a prolapsed internal hemorrhoid is cut off by surrounding muscles, potentially requiring urgent medical attention.
