Haemorrhoids are swollen or inflamed vascular structures in the anal canal. They become problematic when swollen or inflamed, causing symptoms like painless rectal bleeding or pain and swelling near the anus. Haemorrhoids are common and can affect people of any age, often caused by abdominal pressure from straining during bowel movements or constipation. Diagnosis is usually done through visual or physical examination to identify external or internal haemorrhoids. Homeopathic treatments aim to reduce symptoms by matching remedies to the individual's condition.

2. Signs and symptoms
The signs and symptoms of haemorrhoids depend on the type
present.
Internal haemorrhoids usually present with painless rectal bleeding.
External haemorrhoids may produce few symptoms or, if thrombosed,
significant pain and swelling in the area of the anus
3. Signs and Symptoms
External
If not thrombosed, it may cause few problems.
However, when thrombosed, it may be very painful.
Nevertheless, this pain typically resolves in two to three days.
The swelling may, however, take a few weeks to disappear.
A skin tag may remain after healing.
If haemorrhoids are large and cause issues with hygiene, they may
produce irritation of the surrounding skin, and thus itchiness around
the anus.

Internal
Bright red rectal bleeding during or following a bowel movement.
Tenderness or pain during bowel movements.

Extreme abdominal pressure causes the veins to swell and become

of haemorrhoids.

which can lead to haemorrhoids
6. Diagnosis
Doctor typically diagnosis it by physical examination.
A visual examination of the anus and surrounding area may diagnose
external or prolapsed haemorrhoids.
A rectal examination may be performed to detect possible rectal
tumours, polyps, an enlarged prostate, or abscesses.
