Cure hemorrhoids
Very few diseases are referred to so many names as Hemorrhoids. These are some of the variants of the name that are used by people searching for information on the disease, its causes and symptoms, cures and treatments: piles (used to describe this disease for more then a century, an alternative name), hemroids (the most common misspell, used often by people), hemorhoids (with a single ‘r’), hemorroids (without the silent ‘h’ in the middle).
You may ask what is correct spelling. It’s of course, hemorrhoids – a common name in the medicine circles. Occasionally, haemorrhoids is also used, especially by doctors. The last one is an older term, seldom used in medical publications.
According to some estimates, 40% to 50% of people all over the world, who are more than 50 years of age, suffer from this disease. This does not mean that younger people can’t get it. There is just less probability. And another interesting thing, more males then females suffer from hemorrhoids. Most cases of ladies affected by bleeding hemorrhoids are associated with the increased pressure on the anal region caused by the pregnancy. In the USA, for example, the prevalence is about 4.4%. In an year, almost half a million people in the U.S. are treated for hemorrhoids, with 10 to 20% of them requiring surgeries.
Another fact is that all of us have hemorrhoids and it is perfectly normal to have them, but only when they are noticeable - they don’t remain out of sight, and show signs of hemroids and symptoms, we say that the person has hemorrhoids.
