Seven causes of disease and how to do without surgery, expert advice

It can develop hemorrhoids because of varicose veins?

Olga.

Alexey Stepanov doctor phlebologist:

- Yes, these diseases may be linked. The presence of varicose veins in the legs shows the weakness of the connective tissue (which consist of blood vessel walls). A hemorrhoids - is also varicose veins of the rectum. That is a predisposition to hemorrhoids you have. So if you suffer from constipation, experiencing discomfort and pain when going to the toilet, check for the presence of a proctologist hemorrhoids.

Some years I suffer from constipation. The doctor said it was due to hemorrhoids and should be removed. Is it possible to get rid of hemorrhoids without surgery?

Vyacheslav.

- Until recently, it was believed that the hemorrhoid can be removed only by surgery. But modern technology allows about 85% of patients to avoid the surgeon's scalpel. For the latest techniques are donning latex rings on hemorrhoids, infrared and radio wave coagulation, sclerotherapy (injection of special gluing patients vials inside drugs hemorrhoids). Also, your doctor may recommend the use of special drugs that combine an analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect.

Can you recognize yourself hemorrhoids?

Igor.

- The first "bells": a sense of discomfort when going to the toilet, when the "desirable, but can not" pain in the anus, as well as the presence of blood in the stool. And to distinguish blood from the hemorrhoidal bleeding from the upper gastrointestinal tract may be so. Hemorrhoids blood scarlet, located on the surface of the stool, while other pathologies - the blood is mixed with a chair, making his blood-dark. But to accurately diagnose - hemorrhoids, you need to pass course of the study. Sometimes it is enough sigmoidoscopy (this word means in the complex reality of digital examination of the rectum), sometimes you have to go through ultrasound and colonoscopy.

It is believed that women suffer from hemorrhoids often than men. Why is that?

Elena.

- Yes, hemorrhoids - often attack women. There are several reasons. Very often the symptoms of hemorrhoids begin during or after pregnancy. It is associated with increased intra-abdominal pressure during this period. Compounding is a sedentary lifestyle, excessive physical stress, weight lifting, abuse of fatty, sugary and spicy food, smoking.

BTW

The disease of office workers and bikers ...

What can lead to hemorrhoids? Yes, everything that increases the pressure and causes stagnation of blood in the veins of the pelvic and rectal venous plexus:

1. Heredity, congenital weakness of the connective tissue of the veins. And genetic predisposition to varicose veins and is transmitted through the male and the female line. So, for example, if mothers are the "cluster" veins in the legs, then his son, not standing up for 6-8 hours with an office chair, it increases the risk of hemorrhoids.

2. Improper diet (a diet poor in fiber, love and sharp little caffeine, which stimulates the intestine.

3 . Excessive alcohol consumption.

4. Sedentary, sedentary "office" way of life, or, conversely, too heavy fiznagruzki.

5. The tendency to constipation.

6. Some sports (horseback riding, riding a motorcycle, bicycle) and long sitting at the wheel (previously hemorrhoids called "disease truckers'). Again, due to the fact that the "fifth point" for too long is in the "glued" to the seat state. In addition to wind speed often prohvatyvaet, that get more and chronic pelvic hypothermia.

7. Pregnancy and childbirth. With the growth of the fetus normal outflow of blood from the veins of the legs is broken due to compression of large venous plexus. So the future mums, especially at high pregnancy necessarily need to wear support stockings or socks antivarikoznye. The very same process of childbirth also puts additional strain on the blood vessels that are in the abdomen.
