Friends today I am discussing about piles or hemorrhoids. What is piles? Piles are swellings or swollen haemorrhoids that occur inside and around the anus, and along the anal canal. Haemorrhoids are masses, clumps, cushions of tissue full of blood vessels, support tissue, muscle and elastic fibers in the anal canal.Everyone has haemorrhoids. However, when the haemorrhoids guarding the anal passage become too big due to inflammation, so that the vein walls become stretched, thin, and irritated by passing bowel movements, that is when piles develops. In most cases, piles goes away on its own. Piles can be broadly classified into two categories: Internal Piles - are located far within the rectum, and can’t be seen or felt. The only symptom is usually bleeding.Internal piles can be classified into 4 grades: Grade1: These are tiny haemorrhoids within the lining of the anus. Grade 2: These haemorrhoids too lie within the anus and are slightly larger than grade 1 haemorrhoids. These haemorrhoids may get pushed out while passing stool but return to the original position on their own. Grade 3: These are also known as 'prolapsed haemorrhoids'. They appear outside the anus. The patient can push them back in by pressing against them with his fingers. Grade 4: These haemorrhoids cannot be pushed back and stay outside the anus at all times. They need to be treated by a doctor who usually suggests a surgery. External Piles - are located around the anus right under the skin, where there are many pain-sensing nerves. They, therefore, hurt as well as bleed. Anyone at any age can be affected by piles. Though it has been observed that people over 45 years of age usually get affected by piles. About 50% of people experience this condition at some time in their life. Women who are pregnant too experience it. Though it is not clear what causes haemorrhoids, researchers think this might be an inherited condition of weak veins or varicose veins leading to haemorrhoids. How does piles occur? Haemorrhoids are masses, clumps, cushions of tissue full of blood vessels, support tissue, muscle and elastic fibers in the anal canal. Piles are haemorrhoids that have become inflamed. Internal haemorrhoids form when blood vessels inside the rectum become swollen and engorged. External haemorrhoids can occur due to increased pressure caused by obesity, pregnancy, sitting or standing for long hours at a stretch, straining on the toilet, coughing, sneezing, vomiting, and holding your breath while straining to do strenuous physical labour. Who is prone to piles? Some people are more prone to developing piles than others. There could be a variety of reasons for it: genetic predisposition to piles, meaning weak veins can be genetic leading to weak rectal vein walls or week venous valves less fiber in the diet can cause constipation which can lead to the formation of piles poor bathroom habits pregnancy excessive coughing or sneezing constant sitting or standing for long hours at a stretch excessive straining, rubbing or cleaning around the anus regularly holding breath while straining to perform some physical labour being obese What are the causes of piles? The primary causes of piles include: genetic predisposition to piles lack of fiber in the diet inadequate fluid intake sedentary lifestyle stress straining while passing stool constipation and diarrhea constant sitting or standing for long hours at a stretch sitting for long periods of time on the toilet anal intercourse pregnancy constant heavy lifting being obese previous surgery of bowel constriction of intestine following a surgery spinal cord injury that leads to bladder and rectal dysfunction dysfunction of the floor of pelvis What are the symptoms of piles? How is piles diagnosed? The symptoms of piles include: bright red bleeding from the anus. Blood may streak the bowel movement or the toilet paper. pain during bowel movements painful swelling or a lump near the anus anal itching mucous discharge from the anus hard lump around the anus area around the anus becomes red and sore Diagnosis If the doctor suspects you have piles, he will perform a visual examination of your anus to diagnose haemorrhoids. He may also perform a digital rectal exam to check any sign of piles within the anus.The doctor may also prescribe an additional test called a sigmoidoscopy. A sigmoidoscopy (a small fibre-optic camera) involves your doctor using a small camera to diagnose an internal haemorrhoid. The sigmoidoscope is fitted into a small tube and inserted into your rectum. It provides a clear view of the inside of your rectum and displays the abnormalities if any within the rectum. The doctor may also prescribe other tests such as colonoscopy, anoscopy, and proctoscopy which can clearly show internal haemorrhoids if any. What are the complications of piles? The complications of piles include: bleeding during bowel movements anemia pain during bowel movements piles cause complications associated with hygiene, as the anal area becomes difficult to clean after defecation poor hygiene around the anal area can lead to several infections itchiness around the anal area gangrene, if the blood supply to an internal haemorrhoid is cut off What is the treatment for piles? Medical Treatment Piles often clear up on their own but may require treatment or even surgery if the symptoms are severe. The treatment of piles varies for internal and external piles. Grade one, and two, of internal haemorrhoids, is usually treated with medicine and a planned diet of fibrous non-spicy food. In some cases, the doctors may also prescribe a topical cream. Grade three of internal haemorrhoids is also treated with medicine and a change of diet but may require surgical intervention if the symptoms are severe. Treatment of grade four internal piles requires prompt surgical intervention especially if gangrenous tissue is found. To treat external piles your doctor might suggest hemorrhoid creams, or ice packs to reduce the swelling. If the case is too severe, the doctor may suggest surgery which can include: removal of haemorrhoids using an infrared photo, laser, or electrical coagulation to burn tissue affected by piles sclerotherapy to eliminate varicose veins which could be the cause of piles Exercise Exercising can easily reduce the symptoms of piles. You can go for exercises such as : brisk walking deep breathing exercises stretching exercises aerobics kegel exercises 3 times everyday - the steps for which are: contracting your pelvic muscles. It is akin to the action you do when you hold urination. squeeze and hold for three seconds then relax for another 3 seconds. repeat the exercise 10 times each session, until you can do as many as 15 repetitions Piles: Four symptoms of painful haemorrhoids Some tips for help with hemorrhoid pain Hemorrhoids during pregnancy Natural Home Remedies For Blood In Stool, Hemorrhoids Next Gen Pharma Launches Roidosanal for Treatment of Haemorrhoids, Backed with Clinical Studies The piles factor: Youth at increased risk due to sedentary urban life 5 everyday habits that are giving you hemorrhoids Primary Homoeopathic Remedies Aesculus hippocastanum When this remedy is needed, hemorrhoids are sore and aching, with a swollen feeling.

Sulphur Itching, burning, oozing hemorrhoids accompanied by a feeling of fullness and pressure in the abdomen suggest a need for this remedy. The anus is inflamed and red and may protrude significantly. The person may feel worse from warmth and bathing, and have flatulence with a strong, offensive odor. Other Remedies Arnica montana Sore, bruised-feeling hemorrhoids may be relieved with this remedy, especially when straining or over-exertion (for instance, childbirth or heavy lifting) has brought on the hemorrhoids.

The person may also have problems with flatulence and constipation. Hamamelis virginiana improves venous circulation and relieves hemorrhoids that are painful with the slightest contact and bleed easily. Ignatia Hemorrhoids accompanied by spasms and stabbing pain in the rectum suggest a need for this remedy—especially if the person is sensitive and emotional. Stitching pains can be felt in the rectal area when coughing. Bleeding and pain are often worse when the stool is loose, and rectal prolapse sometimes follows bowel movements.

Friends today I am discussing about a common skin problem known as fungal infections. Fungal infections are common throughout much of the natural world. In humans, fungal infections occur when an invading fungus takes over an area of the body and is too much for the immune system to handle. Fungi can live in the air, soil, water, and plants. There are also some fungi that live naturally in the human body. Like many microbes, there are helpful fungi and harmful fungi. When harmful fungi invade the body, they can be difficult to kill, as they can survive in the environment and re-infect the person trying to get better. Symptoms Redness and itching are common symptoms Skin changes, redness, and itching are common symptoms of many fungal infections. The symptoms of a fungal infection will depend on the type, but common symptoms include the following: skin changes, including red and possibly cracking or peeling skin itching Read on to find out more about some common types of fungal infection, their symptoms, and the treatment options. Types The following conditions are all common types of fungal infections. Athlete's foot Tinea pedis or athlete's foot is a common fungal infection that affects the foot. Athlete's foot is commonly associated with sports and athletes because the fungus grows perfectly in warm, moist environments, such as socks and shoes, sports equipment, and locker rooms. In reality, anyone may be affected by athlete's foot. It is most common in warmer climates and summer months, where it can quickly multiply. athletes foot Athlete's foot is a common infection where the fungus grows in warm and moist environments. The symptoms of athlete's foot may vary slightly from person to person. Classic symptoms include: redness or blisters on the affected area the infected skin may be soft, or layers may start to break down peeling or cracking skin the skin may scale and peel away itching, stinging, or burning sensations in the infected area Diagnosis, treatment, and prevention Not all itchy feet are the result athlete's foot. Doctors usually diagnose the infection by scraping scaling skin off of a person and inspecting it under a microscope for evidence of any fungus. There are a few different fungi that can cause athlete's foot. The infection may behave differently depending on the specific fungus that is infecting the skin. Athlete's foot is often treated with topical antifungal ointments, which are available to purchase over-the-counter or online. Severe infections can require additional oral medications as well. The feet will also need to be cared for and kept dry to help kill the fungus. Prevention methods include allowing the feet plenty of air to breathe and keeping them clean and dry. It is a good idea to wear sandals in public showers or locker rooms. Yeast infection Vaginal yeast infections are a common form of Candida overgrowth in women, usually caused by Candida albicans. An overgrowth of Candida disrupts the normal balance of the bacteria and yeast in the vagina. This imbalance of bacteria may be due to antibiotics, stress, and hormone imbalances, or poor eating habits, among other things. Candida infections can also commonly cause fungal toenail infections and diaper rash. Symptoms toenail fungus A yeast infection may commonly cause fungal toenail infections. Symptoms of a yeast infection include: itching and swelling around the vagina burning sensations or pain during urination or intercourse redness and soreness on and surrounding the vagina unusual vaginal discharge, such as gray clumps that resemble cottage cheese or a very watery discharge A rash may develop over time in some cases. Yeast infections should be treated quickly, as the symptoms may become severe if left untreated. The classic symptoms of a yeast infection make them easy to diagnose. Doctors may ask about the person's medical history, such as any previous yeast infections or sexually transmitted infections (STIs). They may also ask whether the person was recently taking antibiotics. Doctors will then examine the vaginal walls and cervix for signs of infection, taking cells from the vagina if necessary for proper diagnosis. Treatment of yeast infections depends on their severity. Standard treatments include creams, tablets, or suppositories, which are available via prescription, or over-the-counter or online. Complicated infections may require complex treatments. Avoiding yeast infections begins with a balanced diet and proper hygiene. Wearing loose-fitting clothing made from natural fibers may also help prevent infection. Washing underwear in very hot water and changing feminine products often can also help prevent fungal growth. Jock itch Tinea cruris, commonly known as jock itch, is another common fungal skin infection. These fungi love warm and damp environments and thrive in moist areas of the body, such as the groin, buttocks, and inner thighs. Jock itch may be more common in summer or in warm, humid areas of the world. Jock itch is mildly contagious and is often spread through direct contact with an infected person or an object that is carrying the fungus. Symptoms Thrush can affect the genital area in men as well as women. Thrush can affect the genital area in men as well as women. Jock itch appears on the body as an itchy, red rash that often has a circular shape to it. Symptoms include: redness in the groin, buttocks, or thighs chafing, irritation, itching, or burning in the infected area a red rash with a circular shape and raised edges cracking, flaking, or dry peeling of the skin in the infected area Jock itch is not the only type of fungal infection that can affect a man. Find out more about Candida in men. Jock itch has a very particular look and can usually be identified based on its appearance. If doctors are uncertain, they may take a skin sample to inspect and confirm their diagnosis. Treating jock itch usually involves topical antifungal ointments and proper hygiene. Many cases of jock itch are improved by over-the-counter medications, though some require prescription medications. Cleaning the affected area and keeping it dry can also help kill the fungus. Jock itch can be prevented by wearing loose-fitting natural fibers, such as cotton underwear which is available to buy online. Avoiding contact with others who have the infection is also important. Avoiding shared items, such as towels and sporting equipment may also help. Ringworm Tinea corporis or ringworm is a skin infection caused by a fungus that lives on dead tissues, such as the skin, hair, and nails. Ringworm is the fungus that causes both jock itch and athlete's foot. When it appears anywhere else on the body, the infection is just called ringworm. Symptoms Ringworm Ringworm is a skin infection that causes jock itch and athlete's foot. Ringworm is usually easy to notice because of its shape. A red patch that may itch or be scaly will often turn into a raised, ring-shaped patch of skin over time. It may even spread out into several rings. The outside of this ring is red and may appear raised or bumpy, while the inside of the ring will remain clear or become scaly. Ringworm is highly contagious, and it can be transmitted by skin-to-skin contact, or from contact with pets, such as dogs. The fungus may also survive on objects, such as towels, clothes, and brushes. The ringworm fungus also infects soil and mud, so people who play or work in infected dirt may catch ringworm as well. Diagnosis, treatment, and prevention Other skin conditions may look like ringworm, so doctors will usually want to take a skin sample to inspect for the fungus. After confirming a diagnosis, doctors will recommend a treatment, depending on how severe the symptoms are. Creams and medicated ointments are often sufficient to treat many cases of ringworm, and may be purchased over-the-counter or online. Ringworm of the scalp or severe ringworm may require a prescription. Basic hygiene can help treat and prevent ringworm as well. Keeping the skin clean and dry can help avoid infection. Safety in public includes wearing sandals into public showers or locker rooms and avoiding shared items and towels. Risk factors Fungal infections are common in humans and are usually not very serious if they are treated quickly and correctly. Anyone with a weakened immune system may be more likely to contract a fungal infection, as well as anyone who is taking antibiotics. Cancer treatment and diabetes may also make a person more prone to fungal infections. Remedies for Fungal Infection 1- Bacillinum It is very useful remedy for any skin disease especially in ringworm.

Friends today I am discussing about a problem known as Hernia. What is a hernia? A hernia occurs when an organ pushes through an opening in the muscle or tissue that holds it in place. For example, the intestines may break through a weakened area in the abdominal wall. Hernias are most common in the abdomen, but they can also appear in the upper thigh, belly button, and groin areas. Most hernias aren’t immediately life-threatening, but they don’t go away on their own. Sometimes they can require surgery to prevent potentially dangerous complications. Common hernia types Inguinal hernia Inguinal hernias are the most common type of hernia. They make up about 70 percent of all hernias, according to the British Hernia Centre (BHC). These hernias occur when the intestines push through a weak spot or tear in the lower abdominal wall, often in the inguinal canal. The inguinal canal is found in your groin. In men, it’s the area where the spermatic cord passes from the abdomen to the scrotum. This cord holds up the testicles. In women, the inguinal canal contains a ligament that helps hold the uterus in place. This type of hernia is more common in men than women. This is because a man’s testicles descend through the inguinal canal shortly after birth, and the canal is supposed to close almost completely behind them. Sometimes, the canal doesn’t close properly and leaves a weakened area prone to hernias. Hiatal hernia A hiatal hernia occurs when part of your stomach protrudes up through the diaphragm into your chest cavity. The diaphragm is a sheet of muscle that helps you breathe by contracting and drawing air into the lungs. It separates the organs in your abdomen from those in your chest. This type of hernia is most common in people over 50 years old. If a child has the condition, it’s typically caused by a congenital birth defect. Hiatal hernias almost always cause gastroesophageal reflux, which is when the stomach contents leak backward into the esophagus, causing a burning sensation. Umbilical hernia Umbilical hernias can occur in children and babies under 6 months old. This happens when their intestines bulge through their abdominal wall near their bellybutton. You may notice a bulge in or near your child’s bellybutton, especially when they’re crying. An umbilical hernia is the only kind that often goes away on its own as the abdominal wall muscles get stronger, typically by the time the child is 1 years old. If the hernia hasn’t gone away by this point, surgery may be used to correct it. Incisional hernia Incisional hernias can occur after you’ve had abdominal surgery. Your intestines may push through the incision scar or the surrounding, weakened tissue. What causes a hernia? Hernias are caused by a combination of muscle weakness and strain. Depending on its cause, a hernia can develop quickly or over a long period of time. Common causes of muscle weakness include: failure of the abdominal wall to close properly in the womb, which is a congenital defect age chronic coughing damage from injury or surgery Factors that strain your body and may cause a hernia, especially if your muscles are weak, include: being pregnant, which puts pressure on your abdomen being constipated, which causes you to strain when having a bowel movement lifting heavy weight fluid in the abdomen, or ascites suddenly gaining weight surgery in the area persistent coughing or sneezing Am I at risk for a hernia? The factors that increase your risk of developing a hernia include: a personal or family history of hernias being overweight or obese a chronic cough chronic constipation smoking, which can trigger a chronic cough Conditions such as cystic fibrosis can also indirectly increase your risk of developing a hernia. Cystic fibrosis impairs the function of the lungs, causing a chronic cough. What are the symptoms of a hernia? The most common symptom of a hernia is a bulge or lump in the affected area. In the case of an inguinal hernia, you may notice a lump on either side of your pubic bone where your groin and thigh meet. You’re more likely to feel your hernia through touch when you’re standing up, bending down, or coughing. If your baby has a hernia, you may only be able to feel the bulge when they're crying. A bulge is typically the only symptom of an umbilical hernia. Other common symptoms of an inguinal hernia include: pain or discomfort in the affected area (usually the lower abdomen), especially when bending over, coughing, or lifting weakness, pressure, or a feeling of heaviness in the abdomen a burning, gurgling, or aching sensation at the site of the bulge Other symptoms of a hiatal hernia include: acid reflux, which is when stomach acid moves backward into the esophagus causing a burning sensation chest pain difficulty swallowing In some cases, hernias have no symptoms. You may not know you have a hernia unless it shows up during a routine physical or a medical exam for an unrelated problem. How is a hernia diagnosed? Inguinal or incisional hernias are usually diagnosed through a physical examination. Your doctor may feel for a bulge in your abdomen or groin that gets larger when you stand, cough, or strain. If you have a hiatal hernia, your doctor may diagnose it with a barium X-ray or endoscopy. A barium X-ray is a series of X-ray pictures of your digestive tract. The pictures are recorded after you’ve finished drinking a liquid solution containing barium, which shows up well on the X-ray images. These tests both allow your doctor to see the internal location of your stomach. If your child has an umbilical hernia, your doctor may perform an ultrasound. An ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create an image of the structures inside the body. Treatment options for a hernia Whether or not you need treatment depends on the size of your hernia and the severity of your symptoms. Your doctor may simply monitor your hernia for possible complications. Treatment options for a hernia include lifestyle changes, medication, or surgery. Lifestyle changes Dietary changes can often treat the symptoms of a hiatal hernia, but won’t make the hernia go away. Avoid large or heavy meals, don’t lie down or bend over after a meal, and keep your body weight in a healthy range. Certain exercises may help strengthen the muscles around the hernia site, which may reduce some symptoms. However, exercises done improperly can increase pressure at that area and may actually cause the hernia to bulge more. It’s best to discuss what exercises to do and not do with your doctor or physical therapist. If these changes don’t eliminate your discomfort, you may need surgery to correct the hernia. You can also improve symptoms by avoiding foods that cause acid reflux or heartburn, such as spicy foods and tomato-based foods. Additionally, you can avoid acid reflux by losing weight and giving up cigarettes. Medication If you have a hiatal hernia, over-the-counter and prescription medications that reduce stomach acid can relieve your discomfort and improve symptoms. These include antacids, H-2 receptor blockers, and proton pump inhibitors. Surgery If your hernia is growing larger or causing pain, your doctor may decide it’s best to operate. Your doctor may repair your hernia by sewing the hole in the abdominal wall closed during surgery. This is most commonly done by patching the hole with surgical mesh. Hernias can be repaired with either open or laparoscopic surgery. Laparoscopic surgery uses a tiny camera and miniaturized surgical equipment to repair the hernia using only a few small incisions. Laparoscopic surgery is less damaging to the surrounding tissue. Open surgery requires a longer recovery process. You may be unable to move around normally for up to six weeks. Laparoscopic surgery has a much shorter recovery time, but the risk of your hernia reoccurring is higher. In addition, not all hernias are suitable for laparoscopic repair. This includes hernias where a portion of your intestines has moved down into the scrotum. Potential complications of a hernia If left untreated, your hernia may grow and become more painful. A portion of your intestine could become trapped in the abdominal wall. This can obstruct your bowel and cause severe pain, nausea, or constipation. An untreated hernia can also put too much pressure on nearby tissues. This can cause swelling and pain in the surrounding area. If the trapped section of your intestines doesn’t get enough blood flow, strangulation occurs. This can cause the intestinal tissue to become infected or die. A strangulated hernia is life-threatening and requires immediate medical care. Preventing a hernia You can’t always prevent the muscle weakness that allows a hernia to occur. However, you can reduce the amount of strain you place on your body. This may help you avoid a hernia or keep an existing hernia from getting worse. Prevention tips include: not smoking seeing your doctor when you’re sick to avoid developing a persistent cough maintaining a healthy body weight avoiding straining during bowel movements or urination lifting objects with your knees and not your back avoiding lifting weights that are too heavy for you.
