What Causes Hemorrhoids?
10. Diarrhea Or Constipation
Our digestive systems need a certain amount of time to absorb nutrients and water from our food. Some things can affect the passage of our food through the digestive system, however. This can be caused by infections that irritate the stomach lining, hormonal imbalances, or maybe just having eaten food that is particularly spicy.
This can result in either diarrhea or constipation, depending on whether the food is passing through more quickly or more slowly than usual. Regardless, either condition will increase the likelihood that hemorrhoids will develop. These conditions can be dangerous, so they should never be treated with complacency, especially if the symptoms are severe.
