Blood In Stools - Piles

About

Piles are enlarged blood vessels inside or around the anus.

They can develop when these blood vessels become enlarged, which can cause
symptoms.

Types of piles

First degree piles may bleed but don’t come out of your anus.
Second degree piles come out of your anus when you are passing stools, but go back
inside on their own afterwards.
Third degree piles come out of your anus and only go back inside if you physically
push them back in.
Fourth degree piles always hang down from your anus and you can’t push them back
in. They can become very swollen and painful if the blood inside them clots.

Causes of piles

Chronic constipation or long-lasting diarrhoea
getting older – your anal canal weakens with age, which makes piles more likely
having a persistent cough
Pregnancy
