Haemorrhoids, also known as piles, are not only a condition but pre-existing blood vessels anchored around the anal canal to protect it. During bowel movements, they act as a cushion and swell. When the anchors securing the blood vessels break away from the canal wall, they shift closer to the surface of the skin and become visible or palpable – and this is what most people mean when they refer to haemorrhoids as a condition.
