Hemorrhoids

Also known as "piles," characterized by a swollen mass of varicose veins in the rectum, which sometimes protrudes in a manner resembling grapes, and... you don't really want to hear this, do you? Good, because I'm getting just a wee bit nauseous talking about it.
Balms and ointments applied to the area may offer symptomatic relief; however, for longer-lasting relief, a change of diet is prescribed. Chronic constipation can result in hemorrhoids, thus the same dietary considerations for that condition may alleviate hemorrhoids. The rule of thumb is, don't strain. Take it easy when voiding. If you sit there, it will come.
