Hemorrhoids Prevention
Take steps to protect yourself
Stay hydrated:
Drink plenty of fluids, especially water, throughout the day. This helps keep your stool soft and prevents constipation, another factor in piles.
Exercise regularly
Regular physical activity helps keep your digestive system moving efficiently. Aim for moderate exercise most days of the week.
Avoid straining:
Don't strain during bowel movements. If you have difficulty passing stool, relax and try again later.
Increase your fiber intake:
Aim for a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. These foods add bulk to your stool, making it softer and easier to pass, reducing straining which can contribute to piles.
