Hemorrhoids: From your part, make sure your stool is never hard or you are constipated. Drink adequate amount of water, diet should have more fiber, more vegetables, fruits; avoid fried/fatty food. See your doctor to find out how bad is it. He/she may refer you to surgeon if needed.

Veins: Hemorrhoids are normal veins in the anal canal. They can become inflamed or enlarged with constipation or prolonged and repeated straining to have a bowel movement. Treated at home by avoiding constipation, drink plenty of liquids, eat more fiber (fruits, vegetables, metamucil), avoid junk foods. See a surgeon if symptoms persist.
