Is it normal to develop piles (hemorrhoids) during pregnancy, and how can they be managed safely

I’m currently pregnant and have recently started experiencing discomfort, swelling, and pain around the rectal area, which I suspect might be piles (hemorrhoids). Is this a common condition during pregnancy? What causes it, and are there safe and effective ways to relieve the symptoms without harming the baby? I would appreciate advice on home remedies, lifestyle changes, or treatments that are recommended for pregnant women.

piles can happen during pregnancy, often due to constipation and extra pressure on the veins. i experienced similar discomfort and was diagnosed with haemorrhoids after having swelling, pain and bleeding. Dr Chew Min Hoe took good care of me and performed haemorrhoid surgery when it became necessary. i had a good recovery and would recommend his care to anyone looking for a colorectal clinic in Singapore. 😊
