Unclear: Piles or hemorrhoids do not generally cause abdominal symptoms. Try keeping yourself regular - having 1 bowel movement a day - avoiding straining on the toilet and avoiding toilet paper - try baby wipes or most wipes. If your symptoms resolve, great - if not, see your doctor.

Hemorrhoids: Hemorrhoids are very common. They occur from a stasis of blood flow in the blood vessels that go to our lower intestines. As you get older you are less active and sit for longer periods of time. Do not sit on the toilet to read. Use a soft wet type of tissue for wiping. Over the counter medicated pads may help with inflammation. See doctor if worsens. Exercise and eat fiber.
