Hemorrhoids are the parts of normal human structure based in the anal canal. They are composes of arterio-venous channels and connective tissues. The problem starts when they are distended. Such condition is generally referred to as “Pathological Hemorrhoids”.

Hemorrhoids are classified into two types; internal and external. The first exists when bleeding starts without pain while the latter is present when a patient feels pain in the anus-area.

If someone finds bright red blood covering the stool, it is the symptom of internal hemorrhoids whereas swelling and lumps round the anus are the symptoms of external hemorrhoids.

Hemorrhoids treatment varies from a patient to patient depending on the situation present. Fiber intake, maintaining hydration, water cure therapy are applied in the initial stages. When the situation deteriorates and becomes out of control then surgery is considered to be the last option in hemorrhoids treatment.
