Piles are abnormally enlarged and dilated blood vessel ( mainly
veins) around the back passage or anus. Piles are also known as
"hemorrhoids”. Hemorrhoids occur in both men and women most
often between the ages of 20 and 50.
Common Causes of Piles: It can be hereditary with
congenital weakness of the vein walls. Continuous erect posture
cause high pressure in rectal veins. Straining by constipation
and over purgation may cause piles. Dysentery may aggravate
latent hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids are also common among pregnant
women. The pressure of the foetus in the abdomen, as well as
hormonal changes, causes the hemorrhoid vessels to enlarge.
