Hemorrhoids - Causes Symptoms...

Lilly Richardsen

Hemorrhoids are swollen veins located in the lower rectum or anus. While they are a common medical condition affecting millions of people worldwide, they often remain a taboo topic, shrouded in discomfort and embarrassment. For many, the symptoms of hemorrhoids—ranging from itching and pain to bleeding—can significantly disrupt daily activities and overall well-being. Yet, despite their prevalence, hemorrhoids are frequently misunderstood, and many sufferers avoid seeking treatment due to stigma or misinformation.
Understanding hemorrhoids is the first step toward effective management and prevention. This condition develops from a variety of causes, including dietary habits, lifestyle choices, and even genetic predisposition. Factors such as chronic constipation, prolonged sitting, or straining during bowel movements can exacerbate the problem. For pregnant individuals, hormonal changes and increased abdominal pressure can also contribute to the development of hemorrhoids. While the physical discomfort is often the most immediate concern, the emotional toll of dealing with hemorrhoids should not be overlooked.
This book aims to demystify hemorrhoids by providing a thorough yet approachable guide to understanding their causes, symptoms, and treatments. At its core, this book emphasizes the importance of breaking the cycle of shame and misinformation that often surrounds this condition. By fostering awareness and encouraging proactive care, we hope to empower readers to take control of their health.

The Book Of Earths

Edna Kenton

This is a compendium of theories of the shape of the Earth, along with a great deal of 'Earth Mystery' lore. Richly illustrated, the Book of Earths includes many unusual theories, including Columbus' idea that the Earth is literally pear-shaped, modern theories that the Earth was originally tetrahedral, and so on. Kenton also covers many traditional theories including the ancient Babylonians and Egyptians, Hindu and Buddhist cosmology, and those of the Peruvians, Aztecs and Mongols. She also discusses modern alternative theories such as that of Reed and Koresh. Strangely enough, she misses or ignores the modern flat earth theory of Rowbotham. This is the only apparent omission in this definitive study. Kenton has no apparent axe to grind: this is simply a very readable survey of the literature if you have any interest in 'Earth mysteries"
