Adjust diet: most of this problem related to diet, you may need to talk to a doctor about the changes you must make. High fiber diet, less fat and oil. Lossing weight helps if you are overweight. And increase activity helps. If this problems continues, in long run it will become a problem- you can get diverticulosis, hemorrhoids etc
