What are the risks of having hemorrhoids?
The risks of having Hemorrhoids:
The factors which increases the risk of hemorrhoids are bowel habits, physical
stresses, and other conditions. Persistent constipation or diarrhea will lead to a
lot of strain with bowel movements.
Other factors which are responsible for the risk of hemorrhoids are:
1. Obesity - excessive weight puts more strain during bowel movements.
2. Hereditary factors- there is a tendency to inherit hemorrhoids.
3. Infection in the anal canal- leads to inflammation in the anal and rectal region.
4. Strain during delivery-pressure on blood vessels increases and causes strain.
5. Spinal cord injuries- affects bowel movements.
6. Diseases of the liver and heart- causes blood to back up in the pelvis and abdomen.

Can hemorrhoids go away on its own?
Hemorrhoids are curable, they are not permanent.
However, very few cases they disappear themselves so have to go under treatment to get rid of it.
Yes definitely, hemorrhoids go away. There are medications.
Answer:Hemorrhoids can be a temporary condition if proper precautions are made. It's not like a cold or cut, which can go away over time, even if untreated. Hemorrhoidal Disease (HD) can become a consistent and painful problem if effort is not taken to address the root cause of the problem.There are many topical ointments that are sold as a cure or treatment for hemorrhoids, but there is not much evidence on the efficacy of such treatments. Changing one's diet to include more fiber, minimizing heavy lifting, and promoting healthy bowel habits are good ways to move towards minimizing the symptoms and chances of future occurrences. Certain creams can also reduce the itching and discomfort, but they only temporarily minimize the symptoms. Depending on the severity of the hemorrhoids, there are various surgery and alternative treatment options. Each option has its own positives and negatives, but it is often the quickest way to making the condition "go away."
Some people are simply more prone to hemorrhoids and may develop the condition again, even if they make general improvements to their health. This includes the demographic of men and women over the age of 50. It also includes pregnant women, obese people, and men and women with high blood pressure. People who do frequent heavy lifting, have low-fiber diets, or poor bowel habits may also find themselves with a recurrence of hemorrhoids if they do not change their habits.

Why is the small intestine of a pig so long?
The small intestine of the sheep is so long because of their diet. They eat mainly grass, which is mainly comprised of fiber and cellulose making it difficult for digestion. The extra length helps with the longer time it takes to digest.
That depends on the source. A human can be from near silent to way more than intended; in most situations. By the same token "The Fart Machine" can produce an 80 DB sound intended to mimic a gastrointestinal discharge.
After you have eaten and the food has gone through your stomach and other organs, all the wastes that your body doesn't need go to your large intestine which comes out when you go toilet. :)
Why is a cows intestine bigger than a humans intestine?
It is due to the nature of the food that cows and humans eat.
Humans eat small quantities of very high energy food that rapidly releases sugars, minerals and proteins to the human body. There is no need for a huge digestive tract to digest this type of food.
Cows eat very low grade food, normally grass, with lots of cellulose and a tiny amount of mineral and protein. Cellulose is not easily digestible, but it can be broken down given enough time soaking in the correct digestive enzymes. Cows therefore have a large gut capacity, to give their mainly cellulose diet enough soaking time to break down and be useful to them. Most of the processing is done in a very large part of the gut called the caecum.
Humans have the remains of a caecum too, but it is tiny and doesn't work any more. Its called the Appendix.
What is the medical term meaning Surgical removal of the middle portion of the small intestine?
