There are many stories going around about hemroids. Piles Stories can range from involving hemorrhoids symptoms to what causes hemorrhoids all the way through to natural cures and treatments for hemorrhoids. We’re going to see where the truth lies.
Myth #1 Hemorrhoids Gives You Bowel Cancer
This is the grand daddy of all hemorrhoids Myths and is arguable the scariest. Thankfully you don’t need to worry because hemorrhoids absolutely do not cause cancer. To illustrate this let’s examine the differences between Cancer and hemroids. Hemorrhoids are inflamed and swollen veins that have been created by extra pressure from the pelvic area, either by being overweight or from poor bathroom and diet habits leading to constipation. Cancer is caused when veins have been divided and are now out of control.
Hemorrhoids do not lead to the development of cancer of either the rectum or the colon (and they will not cause colorectal cancer). There are rare instances however where individual with colorectal cancer can be more vulnerable to the formation of hemorrhoids because of the pressure that the tumor exerts on the rectal veins.
Myth #2 Hemorrhoids only happen to old people.
Afraid Not. Age does, however, play a part in the formation of Hemorrhoids, or in the ease with which Hemorrhoids are formed. So getting older does increase your chances of getting Hemorrhoids. However they can strike anyone of almost any age.
Hemorrhoids Occur when weak veins in the rectum become swollen. It so happens that as a person gets older the veins in the rectum do become weaker, and that is what makes people think that hemorrhoids are only an elderly persons issue.
You should know though that many things can lead to Piles including poor diet (not enough fibber or water) and a sedentary lifestyle. The office environment doesn’t help, as long periods of sitting or inactivity have been positively linked to Hemroids.
Myth # 3 – Engaging in anal intercourse can cause Hemorrhoids
Nope, doesn’t work that way. You can’t get Piles by having anal intercourse. Anal intercourse can, however, inflame or irritate Piles that are already there.
Myth # 4 – There is no hemorrhoid treatment that works
Again.. not true. There are many natural Hemroids cures and treatments that are very effective, and there are also several ways that you can relieve the itching and pain that Hemroids cause. Sitz baths can be very effective for relieving swelling, but generally prevention is the best cure, so having more fiber, being more active and drinking more water is often the best cure! If you’re Piles get really bad then surgery can be effective (I’ve had surgery for a haemorrhoid that i had, and it fixed everything. hurt like buggery and took over a week to go down, but it stayed away for good)
Hemroids are almost always uncomfortable and can also be extremely painful. I’ve dealt with the worst of them, and have also had operations, and finally figured out how to deal with them effectively.
