'''Hemmorhoids''' are a condition in which the veins around the anus or lower rectum become swollen and inflamed, typically causing extreme discomfort. Hemorrhoids are often caused by straining to move stool, or sometimes by [[pregnancy]], aging, chronic constipation or [[diarrhoea]], and anal intercourse.
== Hemmorhoids in the Bible ==
The Israelites are threatened with hemmorhoids, as a curse for disobedience,
<blockquote>
''The LORD will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed.'' Deuteronomy 28:27 (KJV)
</blockquote>
and a plague of hemmorhoids is inflicted upon the [[Philistines]] after their capture of the [[Ark of the Covenant]]. (1 Samuel, 5-6)
