Overview
Haemorrhoids(piles) is a condition similar to varicose veins, where the veins in the anus or rectal area are swollen and cause pain. If the swollen veins are found towards the edge of the anus it is called external haemorrhoids, if found in the inside of the rectum they are internal haemorrhoids, and in some cases, the swollen veins project out of the anus and are called as prolapsed haemorrhoids.
