Piles, Fistula & Fissures – Causes, Symptoms & Treatment

Piles are one of the most common disorders that anybody may suffer from. Piles are sometimes known as hemorrhoids. Piles are anal vein swollen comprised of blood vessels, elastic fibers, and tissues. They swell, causing significant bleeding and pain in the patient. When hemorrhoids erupt from the anal canal, they are painful.

An anal fistula is a microscopic tunnel that connects an abscess, or diseased cavity in the anus, to a skin hole that surrounds the anus. The anus is the external opening through which feces are released from the body. The anus has several small glands that create mucus. An abscess may form if these glands become clogged and infected. A fistula will form in around half of these abscesses.

On the other hand, a small tear in the thin, wet tissue that surrounds the anus is what an anal fissure is. When you pass hard or big feces during a bowel movement, an anal fissure may emerge. Anal fissures are known to cause discomfort and bleeding during bowel movements. They affect both males and women, as well as children and the elderly. During bowel movements, fissures may cause significant pain. An anal fissure is also the most common cause of rectal bleeding in children.
