Hemorrhoids are balloons, by the looks of it. Of course you have to look under the skin, under the microscope (right, hemorrhoid pathology diagram, inside the black circle is the hemorrhoid), or on the anatomical diagram (below). The blue tissue is the hemorrhoidal blood vessels localized in the anus and lower rectum, with an inflated portion in the middle, doesn’t it look like a balloon? Since it is a balloon and does not blow up, what factors will blow up these balloons? Look at the chart below. All of the reasons listed in the chart will blow up the big balloon and trigger hemorrhoids. So, I don’t need to tell you that you know how to prevent it. Since it is a balloon, can we deflate the balloon to treat it along these lines, of course we can! Clinically, for varicose external hemorrhoids, you can treat them by stripping, or puncturing the vein mass without having to go for excision, and it will be less invasive.
