What
are Hemorrhoids
?
There is no dispute concerning
the beauty and culture experienced upon visiting the mythological
city of Paris. Its sidewalk cafes, elegant boulevards, cultured
gardens, famous museums, great food, jazz at night, wine when ever
and how much needed… and the list can go on and on.
There is no doubt that visiting Paris can be considered a
remedy for the heart and soul of people who work hard and need a
spiritual lift 2 weeks a year when they want to take advantage of
their paid vacation from work.
Still,
after all has been said and done, one must not forget that homeostasis is the
name of the game when talking about life, and no, nothing is perfect… not
even Paris. Yes, even here one may encounter pain, suffering and illness. I
just wonder to myself what the Parisians thought to themselves when they
unconsciously decided to develop the cultural ritual of cafe’ sitting for
hours on end.

Did
they really believe that there would be no price to pay?!?! Well I
am here to bring light on to an unspoken subject that the averages
Parisian rather sweep under the rug. What I am talking about is Hemorrhoids!!!
About
one-third of the population suffers from Hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids
are swollen blood vessels and tissue, which develop in the anus.
Hemorrhoids affect males and females equally. They are more common
in older people because their blood vessels have become thicker
and less elastic with age.
Hemorrhoids
are caused by many different factors. The most common causes are a
diet with little fiber, excessive sitting, lack of exercise,
cafe sitting, pregnancy or being overweight.
