What are piles? Piles are similar to hemorrhoids, which are inflamed or varicose veins in the anal or rectal area. Piles are areas of tissue in the anal canal that swell due to a variety of reasons (such as stress, overexertion, pregnancy, cancer, smoking, or chronic alcohol use) and cause blood to pool.
