what are the reasons for piles - #23434

Swara

I am super worried about this issue I've been dealing with lately. I started noticing these weird symptoms a few months ago, like pain and itching around my backside, and sometimes there's a little bit of bleeding when I go to the bathroom. I did some digging online and found out about piles, which I think is what I might have?! It’s pretty embarrassing though, and I’m just not sure what are the reasons for piles. My brother mentioned it could be related to diet or maybe not enough fiber, but how can that be? I tried eating more fruits and veggies, but the symptoms haven’t really improved. I’ve been sitting a lot more since I started working from home, and I wonder if that’s contributing too. I don't know if stress plays into this? I've had a lot on my plate recently. Are there common reasons for piles that I should really be aware of? If it's hereditary or lifestyle changes—like what exactly should I consider? I feel like the internet can be a bit overwhelming with all the info out there. Anyone had a similar experience or know what are the reasons for piles that I should talk to my doctor about? I just wanna get this sorted out without feeling super embarrassed.
