Symptoms, Treatment & Advice

What causes piles?
A number of factors can contribute to the development of piles:

• The most common cause is straining during bowel movement, usually as a result of constipation.
  • During pregnancy, the growing baby exerts increased pressure on the anal vessels, which can lead to piles.
• Heredity: you may be more likely to develop piles if your family has a history of suffering.

This product is for use by adults over the age of 18 years old.

Symptoms
Some people have piles without experiencing any symptoms, but sufferers may notice the following:

• Bleeding: Although streaks of bright red blood on the toilet paper are not uncommon in people with piles, it may be a sign of a more serious condition and you should see your doctor.
• Swelling: The swollen blood vessels may be felt as a lump or blockage in the anus
