Preventing piles is very easy. Prevention methods such as having a high fibre diet, regular exercise etc. helps keep this condition at bay. Some preventive measures are :
⛔AVOID STRAINING WHILE PASSING STOOL
A constant strain to pass stools causes a build up of pressure in the re**al veins, the veins can swell, thus forming an internal haemorrhoid. To prevent this , a person should stick to a high fibre diet and drink plenty of fluids such that the bowel movements can take place easily and smoothly.
⛔AVOID SCRATCHING:
In the primary stages of piles, a constant itching sensation is felt in the a**s. Even, if one does not have piles, constant scratching in and around the a**s can cause the veins to swell up. This itching will give a momentary relief, however, it will also aggravate the situation.
⛔AVOID SITTING FOR TOO LONG:
Sitting in the same position for a long period of time causes the re**al veins to weaken. This causes the veins to swell up easily, thus causing haemorrhoids. Constant movement is required to prevent this condition from setting in.
⛔STAY COOL:
Wearing a tight outfit or underwear builds up excess heat and moisture around the a**l area which increases the risks of developing piles. Wearing light and cool fabric clothing helps prevent this build of heat. Hence, it is important to steer clear of tight fitting clothes.
⛔AVOID STRESS:
Even though not directly related, stress is a common factor for developing haemorrhoids. Stress causes the digestive tract to malfunction, thereby giving rise to conditions such as chronic constipation. Due to this the risk of forming piles is high. Hence maintaining a stress free lifestyle is another way to prevent it.
