Treatment to prevent Hemorrhoids

Hemorrhoids (also called piles) can be divided into two kinds, internal and external. Internal hemorrhoids lie inside the anus or lower rectum, beneath the anal or rectal lining. External hemorrhoids lie outside the anal opening. Both kinds can be present at the same time.

Hemorrhoids are a very common medical complaint. More than 75% of Americans have hemorrhoids at some point in their lives, typically after age 30. Pregnant women often develop hemorrhoids, but the condition usually clears up after childbirth. Men are more likely than women to suffer from hemorrhoids that require professional medical treatment.
Hemorroids are inflammations of veins in the rectum or anus, which swell up and cause discomfort. There are quite a few ways you can obtain the little blighters: too much straining (this weakens the rectal walls), too much sitting (same thing), high blood pressure, pregnancy, caffeine, diarrhea or constipation.
Lots of people have them at some time, and sometimes they are small and pop easily causing little discomfort, but the biggies are trouble.
The best ways to avoid them include high fibre diets (softens the stools and passes them through the colon quicker), lots of water, an active lifestyle and cutting down on rich fatty foods and caffeine.

Constipation, Hemorrhoids or Piles, and inactivity go hand in hand. If you have been constipated for quite a while, chances are you have hemorrhoids. If you are inactive because you just like sitting around or are confined to a bed or chair, then you will have constipation and hemorrhoids.

So if you want to get rid of hemorrhoids, you need to take 3 steps. These three steps can be done at the same time, especially if you have hemorrhoids that are itchy, painful, and are in need of attention.

First you need to do something about your hemorrhoids. There are many different natural remedies for reducing, relieving, and eliminating hemorrhoids. Since everyone is different in his or her chemical make-up and nutritional requirements, one remedy will not work for everyone. Each of you has to find out what remedy works best for you. Use the remedy that feels right for you, the remedy where you have the ingredients, or that one based on the severity of your hemorrhoids.
