Some people have piles without experiencing any symptoms, but sufferers may notice the following:

• Bleeding: Although streaks of bright red blood on the toilet paper are not uncommon in people with piles, it may be a sign of a more serious condition and you should see your doctor to check this.
• Swelling: The swollen blood vessels may be felt as a lump or blockage in the anus.
• Pain, itching and irritation in the anal region.

At least 40% of people suffer from piles at some time in their lives. However, many people are too embarrassed to seek advice or treatment and, as a result, experience unnecessary discomfort.

Fortunately, there is much you can do to ease the situation and relieve the symptoms.

What causes piles?

Several factors can contribute to the development of piles:

• The most common cause is straining during a bowel movement, usually because of constipation.
• During pregnancy, the growing baby exerts increased pressure on the anal vessels, which can lead to piles.
• Heredity: you may be more likely to develop piles if your family has a history of suffering.

A Healthy Living Plan for Piles Sufferers

You can reduce the risk of piles by following a healthy diet and lifestyle that helps to keep your bowels working regularly and prevents constipation. This can also help to speed recovery from piles.

• Eat a high fibre diet including foods like brown rice, wholemeal bread, wholewheat pasta etc.
• Eat plenty of fresh fruit, vegetables, and salads.
• Drink plenty of water.
• Don't eat too much salty, fatty, or sugary foods such as crisps, burgers, and cakes.
• Cut back on the amount of alcohol, tea, and coffee you drink.
• Exercise regularly.

A healthy diet and lifestyle will reduce the likelihood of constipation and encourage a regular bowel habit. Go to the toilet regularly and try to avoid straining. Leaning forward from the hips may help.
