When a haemorrhoid patient suffers from constipation, toilet time becomes a dreaded necessity of everyday life, says Dr Muraga. However, every time the patient forgets eating right and drinking enough water, the resultant dry stool exacerbates the haemorrhoids. “The pain can range from tingly to excruciating,” says Dr Muraga. Apart from pain and discomfort when passing stool, haemorrhoids are never fatal. According to Dr Muraga, eating a good proportion of roughage and drinking eight glasses of water a day will could be all you need to avoid haemorrhoids.
