Why does alcohol and smoking effect hemorrhoids?


I smoke, I drink and recently have been suffering from enflamed hemorrhoids. They seem to only stop bothering me for days at a time and then *bam* they’re back. When reading on how to treat hemorrhoids I always see "stop smoking/stop drinking"…but I don’t see how either would effect hemorrhoids…so how does smoking or drinking "cause" hemorrhoids?

use your common sense here.Nicotene and alcohol are poisons, poisons irritate many parts of your body, insides. Anyway alcohol and nicotene don’t specifically attack the anus area they jsut have a bad effect all over and thus irritate the hemorrhoids. Tomatoes and spicy food and chocolate can irritate sensitive membranes in our bodies so they irritate hemorrhoids too. sorry if my explanation is not as clear as i’d like it to be.

None of the sites i looked at mention smoking or alcohol.
