CAUSES SYMPTOMS AND SIGNS OF PILES






THE CAUSES OF PILES OR HEMORRHOIDS?



What are the causes of piles?
The causes include reduced vascular drainage of the pelvic organs such as pregnancy, constipation; repeated trauma to rectum and anus due to sodomy , sexual perversion, large and hard stool which can followed by mucous fissures, sitting on the toiled for a long time. Infection and ruptured blood vessels and increased venous pressure in portal hypertension. Bacterial infection may develop in the venous circulation, producing peri-phlebitis and endo-phlebitis.
Bacterial infection may cause proctitis or rectitis [inflammation of the rectum caused mucosa dilatation] may be due to staphylococcus, streptococcus, pseudomonas aeroginosa, gonorrhea, lymphopathya venereum, amebiasis dysentery, anaerobic bacteria
Thrombosis or rupture of vessels often results in slough and ulceration.

Symptoms and signs




There are 4 principle symptoms:
Pruritus ani: the itching is usually localized anal circle; distressing symptoms of a underlying local or general disorder , it occurs because the sensitive, often moist perinea [pudenda] skin is exposed to irritating fecal material retained in anal recesses. The perinea skin may be erythematous [reddish], moist or bleeding.
Pain: mild or severe pain is the result of constriction, edema, or strangulation of piles; severe pain usually in external piles due to the sensitive of the skin; the internal piles mucosa is less sensitive than the skin.
Bleeding: which may be mild or severe occur with mucous laceration, venous distention, obstruction, or ulceration of prolapsed internal piles as a result of straining or difficult defecation.
Prolapse: protrusion of piles may occur suddenly after sub-mucous rupture of veins, thrombosis or strangulation of internal piles.

The stage of pile consists of: [continued]
