How Do You Get Hemorrhoids?
A lot of people don't even know they have hemorrhoids. The rectum is not an area you can readily see. Some times you don't know you have hemorrhoids until you see blood in the toilet water after a bowel movement, when you start to have pain or discomfort in the rectum, or when you feel extra tissue around the rectum.So how do you develop hemorrhoids? For sure, constipation is not the only way you can get hemorrhoids. Here are some additional ways:* Alcoholism or drinking to many alcoholic drinks* Being pregnant and not eating enough fiber* Doing daily heavy lifting and holding your breath
while you do it* Eating excessive processed foods, which are low in fiber and move slowly through your colon.* General body weakness, which will affect the colon function* Having a predisposition to constipation or inheriting a
weakness in the colon and rectum area
* Holding fecal matter too long in the rectum causing pressure to buildup in the rectum veins - postponing a bowel movement* Having a weak liver, which reduces the amount of bile released into the intestines. Bile helps to active peristaltic action.* Having inflammation in the rectum that causes you to
have constipation* Irregular eating patterns* Lack of protein leading to weak tissues and slow
healing of wounds* Not eating foods that keeps you constipation free such as fiber, vegetables, essential fatty acids, protein, water.* Not getting the right vitamins and minerals in your
food.* Being overweight* Poor muscle tone in the anal area from lack of
exercise* Pressure on rectum veins from cysts or tumor in the
colon* Sitting in a chair at home, at work, in a car, or in a
truck for long periods* Using laxatives to the point where your colon no longer
works properly and you end up with constipationAs you can see there are many reasons that you can develop hemorrhoids. And most of them relate to the function of your colon. If you want hemorrhoid relief look at the list and see which condition or situation relates to you and try to make changes in these conditions. In addition to changes add new foods that will help your colon to work better.Rudy Silva has a Physics degree from the University of San Jose California and is a Natural Nutritionist.

Hemorrhoids ? What Do I Need To Do?
Hemorrhoids ? What Do I Need To Do?
There are many unpleasant symptoms and diseases associated with constipation. Hemorrhoids is one such symptom and many doctor or practitioners say, "its not a serious condition." As a natural nutritional consultant, I say, "Hemorrhoids is a condition you need to treat or better yet eliminate."You need to listen to all symptoms you have to decide if you need to take some action to correct the cause. Some times just acknowledging a simple symptom is enough for symptom and the cause to disappear. Hemorrhoids, whether simple or severe, are telling you there is something wrong somewhere and "I hope you take care of it before it get worse"Taking care of hemorrhoids or the hemorrhoid symptoms is the first thing you should take care of. Then, you want to concentrate your effort on the cause of these hemorrhoids. In this way you can help to eliminate your hemorrhoids and prevent them from coming back.The first signs of hemorrhoids are when you need to take action. Don't wait until your hemorrhoids get large, give you pain, start bleeding, or protrudeThe first question you should ask about hemorrhoids is what caused them.What causes hemorrhoids?It is always the cause of an illness that you try to eliminate. Doctors don't always have the time to determine what the cause is so they will treat the symptom to get rid of it. The result is that your illness will come back or the symptom will come back or appear as a different symptom.Hemorrhoids are cause by excess pressure in the rectal veins and the veins in the surrounding area.There are many causes of hemorrhoids of which constipation is a major cause. By first using some natural hemorrhoid remedies that I will discuss in future articles, you can eliminate or diminish your hemorrhoids. Then by using some natural remedies for constipation, you can prevent hemorrhoids from coming back.Using natural remedies for treating your hemorrhoids is the best way to deal with this condition. In their book, Natural Prescriptions, 1994, Robert M. Giller, M.D. and Kathy Matthews, gives you their opinion of drugstore medications,"If you are suffering from hemorrhoids right now, you want immediate relief. What about all those over-the-counter remedies? Just last year the FDA clamped down on the manufacturers of these products, and some of them are being removed from the market because they've never been proven to be effective. Other must limit their claims. Those that claim to shrink tissues must carry a warning because people with diabetes or heart disease, for example, shouldn't use them. In the final analysis, while you may get some temporary relief from these products, you could do as well by applying zinc oxide, petroleum jelly, or witch hazel, which are just as effective and far cheaper."Rudy Silva has a Physics degree from the University of San Jose California and is a Natural Nutritionist.
