Common Causes of Haemorrhoids:
- Straining during bowel movements (constipation or diarrhoea).
- Prolonged sitting in the toilet.
- Pregnancy and childbirth.
- Obesity and poor dietary habits.
Types of Haemorrhoids:
- Internal – Located inside the rectum, usually painless but may cause bleeding.
- External – Under the skin around the anus, often painful and may form a lump.
Early intervention can prevent complications and improve your quality of life.

Common Symptoms Include:
Bright red blood during bowel movements
Pain or discomfort, especially when sitting

Diagnosis
Importance of Professional Evaluation
A proper medical evaluation is crucial to rule out other conditions like anal fissures, infections, or rectal cancer.
How Haemorrhoids Are Diagnosed:
- Physical Examination – Checking external haemorrhoids and symptoms.
- Anoscopy or Proctoscopy – A specialized scope to assess internal piles.
- Colonoscopy – Recommended for bleeding or if there’s a risk of colorectal conditions.
Early diagnosis ensures effective treatment and prevents complications.
