Middle-aged adults: Adults can have hemorrhoids but must make sure there is no anal, colon, or rectal cancer. Many things are in the abdomen: stomach liver, small intestine, gall bladder, large intestine, etc... An exam by a primary care doctor can help figure things out. Constipation can be evaluated and treated by one's primary care doctor who can check for hemorrhoids and may refer to specialists for more exams.

Sedentary lifestyle is also associated with the problem. Consider W.A.S.H. Therapy. W for warm water baths,A for Analgesic agent (Anusol),S for Stool softener, H for High fiber diet.
