WHAT CAUSES HEMORRHOIDS TO BECOME A PROBLEM?

There is no single cause of hemorrhoids. Most often though, they are caused by too much pressure on the anal canal. This can be due to:

   
  Chronic (ongoing) constipation
  Straining during bowel movements
  Diarrhea
  Pregnancy and childbirth
  Sitting too long on the toilet
  Strenuous exercise or heavy lifting
  Aging
  Fissures
   

A fissure is a small tear or crack in the lining of the anus. It can be caused by hard bowel movements, diarrhea, or inflammation in the rectal area. Fissures can bleed and cause painful bowel movements. It is quite common to find hemorrhoids present along with fissures.
