CBD Oil for Hemorrhoids Dr Emmy Akins

Hemorrhoids are clumps of dilated (enlarged) blood vessels in the anus and lower rectum. The rectum is the last area of the large intestine before it exits to the anus. The anus is the end of the digestive tract where feces leave the body. Sometimes hemorrhoids swell when the veins enlarge and their walls become stretched, thin, and irritated by passing stool. Hemorrhoids are classified into two general categories: internal, originating in the rectum, and external, originating in the anus. Hemorrhoids (also termed piles) have caused pain and irritation throughout human history. It's estimated that three out of every four people will have hemorrhoids at some point in their lives
