Haemorrhoids
Book AppointmentHaemorrhoids (also called piles) are swollen veins in the lower rectum or around the anus. They are very common and can cause bleeding, itching, discomfort, or pain.
Many haemorrhoids improve with lifestyle changes and medical treatment. However, some larger or more severe haemorrhoids may require a procedure or surgery.
