The veins draining the anal region usually lie just under the mucous membrane lining of the lowest part of the rectum and the anus. Persistent straining during the act of defecation usually raises the pressure in the veins as a result of which they swell and protrude through the anal opening.
The exact cause of piles is not known. However, they are mainly seen in those who suffer from chronic constipation, either due to low fiber diet or due to constant straining at passing stools. A positive family history is often obtained and is related to congenital weakness of vein walls.
Any condition which causes excessive straining such as chronic cough and bronchitis,
obesity, lifting heavy weights, raises the intra abdominal pressure and the
incidence of piles. Physiological hemorrhoids (piles) are also seen during
pregnancy when the pressure of the growing baby and the uterus gives rise
to piles. It should be noted that this is a reversible condition and should
not be operated. Other causes could be abdominal tumors, liver disorders and
high blood pressure.
Chronic constipation invariably is the major cause of piles as the need to
strain usually arises because waste product of low fiber foods creates small
hard stools. These injure the mucous lining of the anus as they pass through.
They do not pass easily and nearly every act of defecation can put a damaging
strain on the anus. By and large pain or bleeding associated with passing
stools is thought to be piles but it is not always so. The other two important
causes could be a fissure or cancer of the rectum/colon. Ulcerative colitis
is also another cause.
Usually the bleeding from piles is a squirt or drip with passage of stools
like a "splash in the pan". It could also be like a smear of bright blood
on the paper at the end of defecation. Dark blood, clots, profuse bleeding
and blood mixed with stools usually suggest that the bleeding is coming from
higher up and not from piles.
