Hemorrhoids are a condition associated with dilated veins in the anorectal area, which can cause discomfort, pain, and bleeding. Hemorrhoids occur due to the weakening of vascular partitions and the expansion of veins in the rectum and around the anus. Hemorrhoids can be internal or external, depending on their location. Internal hemorrhoids are located inside the intestine and are usually less painful, as there are fewer nerve endings in the rectum. External hemorrhoids form on the outside of the rectum, under the skin, and can be very painful due to high sensitivity in this area.

Gastritis is a term describing inflammation of the digestive tract's mucous membrane, most commonly localized in the stomach. Gastritis can arise due to various reasons and manifest in different symptoms. The main causes of gastritis include the Helicobacter pylori bacteria, whose infection in the stomach causes an inflammatory reaction, as well as the long-term use of certain drugs, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which can irritate or even damage the stomach lining. Additionally, gastritis can be caused by alcohol consumption, smoking, regular stress, autoimmune diseases where the body's immune system attacks the stomach lining, or the impact of certain chemicals, such as acids or alkalis.

Gout is a chronic inflammatory form of arthritis caused by elevated levels of uric acid in the blood, known as hyperuricemia. Gout is a metabolic disorder where the body accumulates too much uric acid, and its crystals deposit in joints and other tissues. Uric acid is a breakdown product of purines – organic compounds found in certain food products and body cells. A healthy body eliminates uric acid through the kidneys with urine. However, when the production of uric acid exceeds its removal from the body, or when the kidneys do not efficiently remove uric acid, gout can develop.
