Description

What are haemorrhoids?

Haemorrhoids are small swellings that contain enlarged blood vessels. They develop inside or around the bottom. They often don’t cause symptoms and you may not even realise you have them. However, if you do experience symptoms they may include:

  • Bleeding after passing a stool (poo)
  • Itchy bottom
  • A lump hanging outside of the anus that may need to be pushed back into the anus after pooing
  • A mucus discharge
  • Soreness, redness or swelling around the anus

What causes haemorroids is unclear, but increased pressure in the blood vessels in and around the anus is associated with the condition. The pressure causes the blood vessels in the back passage to swell and become inflamed. This pressure can be caused by straining on the toilet due to constipation or chronic diarrhoea. Other factors that may cause haemorrhoids include: Being overweight or obese, age, being pregnant, having a family history of haemorrhoids, regularly lifting heavy objects, a persistent cough or repeated vomiting, sitting down for long periods of time.
