Hemorrhoids are quiet a simple illness or condition but it can cause you too much pain. Now, one might wonder or worried about contracting hemorrhoids from someone else. Hemorrhoids do develop and appear because of too much pressure applied to the veins in the anus and in the rectum.
So hemorrhoids are not contagious at all. Don't worry yourself if you know someone who has hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids are simply just a swollen vein caused by too much pressure acquired from many things.
