Hemorrhoids, also called piles, are swollen and inflamed veins in the anus and lower rectum.

Piles may result from straining during bowel movements or from the increased pressure on these veins due to other causes. Piles may be located inside the rectum (internal hemorrhoids), or they may develop under the skin around the anus (external hemorrhoids). Piles are common ailments. About half of adults, by age 50, have had to deal with the itching, discomfort and bleeding that can signal the presence of piles.
