Hemorrhoids, a common condition affecting individuals of all ages, can cause significant discomfort and embarrassment. While often considered a minor inconvenience, hemorrhoids can significantly impact quality of life, particularly when symptoms become severe. To address this widespread health concern, SeaLife360, a leading pharmaceutical company in the Philippines, recently launched Hemaway, a new product designed to alleviate hemorrhoid symptoms and improve overall well-being. The launch event, held at the prestigious Shangri-La Plaza, provided an opportunity to educate the public about hemorrhoids, their causes, and the benefits of Hemaway.
Understanding Hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoids are swollen veins in the rectum and anus. They can be internal, external, or thrombosed, each presenting with distinct symptoms and requiring different treatment approaches.
Internal hemorrhoids are located inside the rectum and are often asymptomatic. However, they can cause discomfort, especially when straining during bowel movements.
External hemorrhoids are located under the skin around the anus and can be more painful, causing discomfort when sitting.
Thrombosed hemorrhoids occur when blood pools externally and forms a clot, leading to severe pain and often requiring surgical intervention.
Common Symptoms of Hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoids can present with a variety of symptoms, including:
- Bleeding during bowel movements
- Pain and irritation
- Itch in the anal region
- Swelling of the anus
- Protrusion of the anus
Causes of Hemorrhoids
While the exact cause of hemorrhoids is not always clear, several factors can contribute to their development:
Age: As we age, the tissues supporting the veins in the rectum and anus can weaken and stretch, increasing the risk of hemorrhoids.
Pregnancy: The increased pressure on the anal region during pregnancy can lead to hemorrhoid development.
Constipation: Straining during bowel movements can put pressure on the anal veins, contributing to hemorrhoid formation.
Obesity: Excess weight can also increase pressure on the anal region, increasing the risk of hemorrhoids.
Sitting for long periods: Prolonged sitting can restrict blood flow in the anal region, leading to hemorrhoid development.
Poor diet: A diet low in fiber can contribute to constipation, increasing the risk of hemorrhoids.
Hemaway: A New Solution for Hemorrhoid Relief
Hemaway, a product developed by SeaLife360, offers a safe and effective solution for hemorrhoid symptoms. It contains diosmin and hesperidin, two flavonoid compounds known for their venotonic and vascular protective properties.
Diosmin and hesperidin work by strengthening the venous walls and improving blood circulation, reducing venous distensibility and stasis. This action helps alleviate the symptoms of hemorrhoids, such as pain, itching, and bleeding.
Taking diosmin and hesperidin together may also help prevent hemorrhoids from recurring.
