Hemorrhoids is a common disease, and the causes of its formation are complex and related to a variety of factors. The common causes of hemorrhoids will be analyzed and explained below.
First of all, the occurrence of hemorrhoids is closely related to lifestyle habits. Bad lifestyle habits such as sitting still for a long time, lack of exercise, and irregular diet may slow down intestinal peristalsis, causing symptoms such as constipation, which in turn increases the risk of hemorrhoids. In addition, long-term drinking, smoking, eating spicy and irritating foods and other bad lifestyle habits can also irritate ** and rectal tissues, causing hemorrhoids.
Secondly, age is also an important factor. As we age, the elasticity of the sphincter gradually decreases, and the elasticity of the surrounding blood vessels is also affected, resulting in a gradual increase in the incidence of hemorrhoids. Especially in middle-aged and elderly people over 40 years old, the incidence of hemorrhoids is higher.
In addition, the occurrence of hemorrhoids is also associated with chronic diseases. Patients with chronic constipation, diabetes, liver cirrhosis and other diseases for a long time are prone to hemorrhoids due to intestinal dysfunction and poor blood circulation. In addition, women are also prone to hemorrhoids during pregnancy, which may be related to uterine pressure and changes in hormone levels.
In addition to the above common causes, genetic factors, occupational factors, mental stress, etc. may also be associated with the occurrence of hemorrhoids. For example, people who work for a long time with sedentary work, people who are under mental stress, and people who are genetically susceptible are also prone to hemorrhoids.
In summary, the causes of hemorrhoids are complex and related to a variety of factors. In order to prevent the occurrence of hemorrhoids, we should pay attention to improving our lifestyle habits, maintaining a healthy diet and rest style, increasing the amount of exercise, and avoiding bad habits such as sitting and standing for a long time. At the same time, for patients who already have hemorrhoids, they should seek medical diagnosis and treatment in time to avoid aggravation of the condition.
