What Are Piles?
Piles, medically known as hemorrhoids, are swollen and inflamed veins in the rectum and anus. They can cause pain, discomfort, itching, and bleeding during bowel movements.
Piles are common but highly treatable with timely care.
Types of Piles
Piles are classified into:
✔ Internal piles
✔ External piles
✔ Thrombosed piles
✔ Prolapsed piles
Each type presents with different symptoms and treatment needs.
Causes of Piles
Common causes include:

Internal piles are graded as:
✔ Grade I – Bleeding without prolapse
