Hemorrhoids Treatment

What’s really a hemorrhoid? How does medical surgery see it?

Also known as “piles,” hemorrhoids is the serious blocking of the veins around the canal in the anus, at the very area where stool finally exits the anus. It is the area very susceptible to outside contact and prone to infection due to the periodic introduction of foreign elements especially during cleaning after a bowel movement. Foreign elements take the form of tissue papers, soap, and even water.

There are four types or stages of a hemorrhoid, according to how sever the condition has become. The first type is a bleeding hemorrhoid but the type which has the hemorrhoid tissue not spilling over or does not manifest outside the canal of the anus. Bleeding of the hemorrhoid tissue is confined internally and may slightly manifest only upon cleansing with a tissue paper. At this stage, the hemorrhoid is only slightly ruptured and is past the stage of mere swollenness.

The second type is the hemorrhoid that bleeds and manifests readily even at the opening of the canal of the anus. The blood manifestations of this hemorrhoid especially happen during bowel movements when the area is pressured during the defecating efforts and upon contact through cleaning. But the bleeding may naturally cease after the bowel movement activity.

The third type of hemorrhoid is a worsened episode that needs actual handling of the hemorrhoid tissue or flesh for comfortably positioning it back to the anal area after its manifestation. And the fourth type is that which cannot be handled in whatever manner to place back the protruding hemorrhoid tissue and conceal it in the anal canal. This type has the hemorrhoid tissue very visible outside the canal of the anus and touching the outside skin in the same area.

Hemorrhoids usually have the following symptoms: sever pain in the rectal area when having a bowel movement and especially so when effort is made to eliminate the stool; bleeding associated with ruptured swollen blood veins in the anal or rectal area; uncomfortable and continuous itching of the swollen area or hemorrhoid, and oozing mucus. There are various treatments and medications for hemorrhoids. There is also the surgical option, the hemorrhoidopexy or hemmorhoidectomy, laser surgery, and the atomizing treatment of hemorrhoids.

Hemorrhoids are protruding and extended or “bleeding over” tissue from the canal of the anus that need to be placed back or concealed in the anal canal. Other procedures to remedy hemorrhoid tissues are varied.
