Causes of Piles
Listed below are some Causes associated with Piles:
Constipation:
People face strain in the toilet because of persistent constipation. When it becomes tougher to eject stool out of the anus, the nerves swell more and even rupture at times. Ruptured Hemorrhoids tend to bleed when the condition worsens. This is accompanied by heightened sensitivity and pain.
Diarrhea:
No stool and excessive stool, both are a reason behind this painful ailment. Diarrhea – i.e., excessive bowel movement also strains the anal muscles.
Sitting too Long:
Sitting on a chair for long hours, like people who work at a desk are more prone to get piles because while we sit for hours at the same place, it puts pressure on your buttocks and hence risks of developing piles also increases.
Standing for Long Hours:
It has been believed that excess off everything is bad and same is the case with piles. Standing for prolonged hours also tends to push blood down to the lower portion of the body, causing swollen veins and arteries and hence, inflamed hemorrhoids.
Lack of a Healthy Diet:
Lack of healthy diet, especially fibrous food, causes constipation and strain during bowel movement. Junk food, excessively spicy food, higher quantities of meat, coupled with lower fluid intake, lead to constipation, which leads to piles.

How much you know about your sunscreen?? – Dr.Sangeetha Das, Consultant at ClinTech
We all know we need to protect our skin from the sun’s harmful rays. Of course, it’s impossible to avoid the sun — who wants to hide indoors when it feels so great to get outside? And the sun’s not all that bad, anyway: Sunlight helps our body to create vitamin D. So follow these tips when you’re outdoors to help manage sun exposure.
First and foremost, it is important to understand the difference between UVA (ultraviolet-A) and UVB (ultraviolet-B).
UVA comes from long-wave solar rays known to penetrate the skin deeply, and is considered the main culprit behind wrinkling and other aspects of photoaging.
UVB, on the other hand, comprises short-wave solar rays that are known to cause sunburn.
Even on cloudy day, upto 80%of the sun’s UV rays can pass through the clouds..
Snow and sand increase the need for sunscreen. Snow reflects 80% of the sun’s rays and sand reflects 25% of the sun’s rays.
Though sunlight is important for healthy skin, just a small amount will do.
Evidence shows that in temperate countries, anything from 5 to 30 minutes of sunlight exposure between the hours of10am and 3pm, twice a week, is sufficient to prevent vitamin D deficiency
There are two kinds of sunblocks. First, there is the physical sunblock, which deflects or scatters UV radiation with its active ingredients titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. Then there is the chemical sunblock, which supposedly works by absorbing the energy of UV radiation before it affects the skin.
What is SPF?
All the SPF number lets you know is how long you can stay in the sun without burning when wearing that product. However, it only refers to protection from UVB radiation, without giving you information about protection from UVA radiation
If that SPF 15 or SPF 30 doesn’t contain avobenzone, titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, you are receiving minimal protection from UVA radiation and it is a dangerous product to consider using. Dangerous because the user now spends more time in the sun, thinking that the product offers more protection than it does in reality.
Many sunscreens are also rated as “PA+”, “PA++” or “PA+++”. PA, which stands for Protection Grade of UVA, measures the ingredients’ protective effect against UVA. PA+ is sufficient for most activities but should you plan to stay in the sun for long hours, opt for PA+++ or higher, if possible.
So what are you waiting for…Step out and enjoy the summer!!
Eat Healthy : Avoid Constipation
Are you suffering from
- Recent change in bowel habits?
- Fewer bowel movements than usual?
- Strain while passing stools?
- Do you have to sit longer than usual to empty the bowels
If your answer is ‘Yes’ to one or more of the questions, then you are amongst the many people who suffer from constipation.
One should be aware that there is no ‘right’ number of bowel movements. Normal passing of stools can occur three times a day or three times a week, depending on your system. It all depends on contributing factors that include the food that you eat and how much you exercise.
Every one experiences being constipated at some point in life due largely to a poor diet. Though it is usually temporary and not serious, understanding what causes constipation can help you take steps to prevent it.
What causes Constipation??
As food passes through the large intestine, water is absorbed and waste products from the food form into stool. As movement of the food in the intestine slows down, stools become dry and hard and causes constipation
Culprits
- Low fibre diet
- High fat content in the food
- Not drinking enough fluids
- Lack of exercise
- Not passing stools when you feel the urge
- Laxative abuse
- Certain medications
- Changes in routine such as pregnancy, aging or travel
How to avoid Constipation
- Eat High Fiber diet : Fiber provides bulk to the stool and also accelerates movement of the food in the intestine. Introduce more beans, seeds, green leafy vegetables, fruits into your diet.
- Avoid refined carbohydrates : such as white bread, pasta and polished rice. Whole grain varieties contain more fibers and also helps insulin release in the body. This also reduces risk of diabetes.
- Drink more water : Eight glasses per day is ideal. Also soups, fruit juices would be helpful
- Exercise : At least 30 mins brisk walk everyday or light workout / aerobics are advisable and also good for overall health.
- Consult your doctor before self prescribing laxatives : Some laxatives are habit forming if taken over a long period of time. Do consult your doctor for the right choice of the laxative and the right duration.
Could you sugest a good diet?
A balanced diet comprising of diverse and healthy foods and that is the key to
promoting good health.
Eating a balanced diet means choosing a wide variety of foods and drinks
from all the food groups. It also means eating certain things in
moderation, namely saturated fat, transfat, cholesterol, refined sugar,
salt and alcohol. The goal is to take in nutrients you need for health at
the recommended levels.
Also, adequate consumption of water is important for a healthy diet.
WHO reccomends:
1)Achieve an energy balance and a healthy weight
2)Limit energy intake from total fats and shift fat consumption away from
saturated fats to unsaturated fats and towards the elimination of
trans-fatty acids
3)Increase consumption of fruits and vegetables, legumes, whole grains and
nuts
4)Limit the intake of simple sugar — A 2003 report recommends less than
10% simple sugars[3]
5)Limit salt / sodium consumption from all sources and ensure that salt is
iodized
How to maintain Ano-Rectal Health?
1)Eat high fiber diet-more fruits,vegetables &whole grain.This would make the stool soft &increase its bulk.This would lessen the straining at stools which cause piles or worsens already existing one.
2)Plenty of oral fluids sufficiently that your urine is light yellow or clear like water.
3)Exercise- Stay active to reduce pressure on veins which occurs because of prolonged standing or sitting.Take frequent short walks.Excercises also helps to reduce weight which contributes to the development of piles.
4)Avoid long period of sitting or standing esp refrain from reading while sitting on the toilet which can increase the pressure in the veins.
5)Schedule time in a day for your bowel movement as a daily routine always helps.Modifying your daily activities to practice healthy bowel habits will help you in the long run to maintain anorectal health.
6)Go to the bathroom as soon as you have the urge because if you wait and the urge goes away,then the stool tends to become dry and hard.Avoid straining at stools.Relax and give yourself time to let things happen naturally.Refrain from holding your breath while passing stools which could again increase the pressure in the veins.
7)Avoid lifting heavy weights frequently.If you must lift weights,always exhale during the act and never hold your breath when you lift.
