What are Piles (Hemorrhoids)?
Piles, also known as hemorrhoids, are swollen and enlarged veins in the lower rectum and anus.
They can develop internally inside the rectum or externally around the anal opening.
Piles may cause discomfort, bleeding, itching, swelling, and pain, particularly during bowel movements.
Although piles are common, early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent complications and improve quality of life.
Internal Hemorrhoids
Located inside the rectum.
Common symptoms include:
- Painless rectal bleeding
- Prolapse during bowel movements
- Mucus discharge
External Hemorrhoids
Located around the anus.
Common symptoms include:
- Pain
- Swelling
- Itching
- Tender lump around the anus
Thrombosed Hemorrhoids
Occur when a blood clot develops inside a hemorrhoid.
Symptoms include:
- Severe pain
- Hard swelling
- Sudden discomfort
This condition may require urgent medical attention.
Symptoms of Piles
Common symptoms include:
Rectal Bleeding

Anal Itching

Mucus Discharge

Several factors increase the risk of hemorrhoids:
Chronic Constipation
Repeated straining during bowel movements.
Prolonged Sitting
Particularly on the toilet.
Low-Fiber Diet
Insufficient fiber intake may lead to hard stools and straining.
Obesity
Excess weight increases pressure on pelvic veins.
Pregnancy
Increased abdominal pressure can contribute to hemorrhoid formation.
Heavy Lifting
Frequent lifting can strain abdominal and rectal veins.
Aging
Weakening of supporting tissues may increase the risk.
Stages of Internal Hemorrhoids
Grade I
Small hemorrhoids that do not prolapse.
Grade II
Prolapse during bowel movements but return spontaneously.
Grade III
Require manual repositioning after prolapse.
Grade IV
Permanently prolapsed hemorrhoids that cannot be pushed back.
Advanced grades often require procedural or surgical treatment.
Diagnosis of Piles
Dr. Vijay Shivpuje performs a detailed evaluation including:
Clinical Examination

Proctoscopic Examination
Evaluation of internal hemorrhoids.
Colorectal Assessment
To rule out other causes of rectal bleeding such as:

Accurate diagnosis helps determine the most effective treatment approach.
