The problem of piles arises mainly due to the prolonged persistence of gastrointestinal problems such as Constipation, Indigestion, Gas, Acidity, Indigestion.
Today's sedentary lifestyle, irregular eating & sleeping patterns, stress, junk & spicy food, lack of fiber-rich foods and lack of water intake;
collectively weakens our digestive system and cause piles-like terrible disease.
Apart from this, weakening of anus and rectum muscles is also one of the major reasons. If these muscles are weak, veins tend to become weaker,
leading to the formation of blood clots or swelling in them.
This is why standing for a long period of time, sitting at one place for hours, lifting huge weight, or exercising more than the necessary puts
more weight on your stomach and muscles & weaken them, leading to piles.
Apart from this, exerting excessive force while passing stool may also cause pressure on the veins, make them swollen and cause piles.
Even during the pregnancy, there is an extra pressure on the nerves & muscles of anus, increasing the risk of piles at the time of delivery.
