8 Main Symptoms of Piles:

1. Bleeding during and after defecation:
This symptom one cannot ignore as it may indicate a more serious condition. Bright red blood is usually a sign of fresh, active bleeding, and this should be discussed with medical advice.
2. Protrusion of tissue from the anus:
This can be a tender, slightly swollen lump that may be visible around the anus. It can cause pain when wiping or during normal activities such as walking or exercising.
3. Itching and irritation around the anus:
This itching can be mild or intense and can be made worse after eating or bathing.
4. Pain and discomfort:
Pain can occur when sitting down, during exercise, and when defecating. It can range from slight discomfort to severe pain.
5. Swelling around the anus:
This can be in the form of raised, red bumps, or slight swelling of the tissue.
6. Discomfort when having a bowel movement:
This sensation can make it difficult to pass stools, even when the rectal muscles are relaxed. In most cases, it happens that they experience pain and are not even able to get rid of it.
7. Difficulty controlling bowel movements:
It may become difficult to retain stools or stool incontinence may occur. Sometimes it happens that an individual needs to use too frequently.
8. Mucus discharge:
This symptom can be associated with a range of conditions, but in the case of piles, it is an indication of inflammation in the anal area.
If any of the above symptoms are present it is important to seek medical advice quickly, as any delay may lead to further complications. Diagnosis and treatment will depend on the severity of the symptoms and the individual circumstances. Treatment options include lifestyle changes, dietary supplements, and medications, while surgery may be necessary in more advanced cases.
