This past year has been my best year yet as a professional photographer! I cannot wait for what 2013 will bring.
Even though it has been a great year, I still have to shut up the little voice in my head that comes every January questioning everything I do as a photographer and small business owner. I have noticed it seems to be a yearly "thing" and from talking to some of my photographer friends, I am not the only one who experiences this. You spend most of the year going from Weddings to Seniors to Families then the Holidays hit and you think "Woah where did everyone go?" January starts up my slow time (this is also when I start booking weddings so that is nice) and also the time to evaluation the past year and fix things that haven't been working and strengthen the parts that are working great.
To keep the good things going (and because who doesn't like making a list?) I have finally decided on my photographic goals for the year.
1. Set up more displays around town. I would love to get my work up in more places. If you or someone you know has a business with a blank wall and would like some art for it, I would love to be able to put up some of my work on a temporary or permanent basis.
2. Try something new every session. I already do this pretty often but I want to be more creative about it.
3. Create more art...or photos for just fun. My husband pointed out not too long ago that I don't do many photos that are just art like I used to. In my mind most of the time photos of my kids are art but I see what he means and I want to go back to doing things that aren't people or are creative projects just for the fun of it.
4. Quit comparing myself to others. I haven't narrowed this down alot this year but it doesn't do anyone any good to look at other people's work and compare it to my own.
5. Be more organized. Work in progress and also gets better each year.
There you have it. It isn't a long list so I feel like it is doable.
Thank you so much for being a part of my passion and dream of being a photographer!

Unpublished Journal
Jan. 8, 1992
The weather has been stormy Jan. 7 and 8. Most of the moisture came as rain on the 7th. Today started out warm and then a north gale brought a sifting of snow and freezing temperature—a January thaw preceded a January freeze. Today is a day for staying inside and looking out. Inside the print shop the chores are now cleaning the presses, organizing material, ridding it of the remains of children's toys and sorting through adult's tools.

Bloomington sits in Monroe County in Indiana. It is known as the "Gateway to Scenic Southern Indiana" and is the home of Indiana University Bloomington. The towns population is an estimated 80,000 people. This area is known for its irregular limestone terrain. Bloomington has a rich and continuing history in the theatrical arts. Bloomington is considered the sixth largest city in Indiana based on its population size. In addition, this area is known for its abundance of rain. Bloomington and surrounding areas are known to get nearly 45 inches of rain each year.
When looking for an apartment it's best to start as early as possible. With this being a college town and the college being one of the major employers in the area, you can imagine that competition for apartments is stiff. The earlier you look the better your chances are as many of these apartments' house faculty and staff from the university.
Finding an apartment can be hard, especially when there are so many choices. Adding a filter can help narrow your search. With our Quick Filters below, you can search by a price and amenities. After following one of these links, be sure to check out the advanced search filters and then sign up for an Email Alert so you can receive new listings that match your needs.
While there are an abundance of apartment locations to choose from you still want to stand out in the crowd when it comes to applying. Competition is high so come prepared to pay all application fees as well as have supporting documentation for your application. The sooner you get the application process started the better.
In order to get around Bloomington we suggest a bicycle if you live in the downtown or college area. Many areas are close and convenient to get to this way. However there are local taxi vendors to transport you as well. It's advised to have a car if you plan on doing anything outside of the downtown area.
Bloomington is strong in the area of performing arts so theatrical enthusiasts will find something for everyone. In addition there is a wide variety of fairs and street performances through out the year. If nightlife is what you are looking for then the City of Bloomington has numerous bars and other nightlife establishments for you. You'll also find wineries and brewing companies making a selection of local beverages.
The Bloomington Area has a surprise for many visitors in the Oliver Winery. Just north of the city is a world-class winery that has been around for more than 30 years. You can tour the facility and enjoy a tasting if you make the visit north of the city. Indiana University is probably the largest and most well known attraction in the city. Visitors regularly take tours through the extremely beautiful campus during their visits to Bloomington. Wonderlab is a fantastically named science museum in Bloomington. Technically speaking, it is the Wonderlab Museum of Science, Health and Technology. The facility is geared mostly towards getting children interested in the sciences.
If you love deep-dish pizza, then you should head straight to Mother Bear's Pizza whenever you find yourself in Bloomington. Reviewers absolutely rave about the quality of the pizza, and if you want to sit in you can enjoy a beer or a glass of wine with your meal. Darn Good Soup is an American style soup restaurant that prides itself on offering some excellent options for vegetarians. If you like to enjoy your meals out on a patio when the weather is good, Runcible Spoon has a beautiful patio that pairs nice with the café style food.
The Irish Lion Restaurant & Pub is everything that you hope for in an Irish pub. A good collection of American food and a varied drink selection make this place a sure bet. The Tap is the standard by which beer selection in Bloomington is defined. This is a modern bar that also features live music, and the multiple draws mean it can get very busy on certain nights of the week. If sports bars are more to your taste, you've got options there as well. Kilroy's Sports bar is nice because of the large beer garden out back.
Bloomington supports the arts so strongly that the city is home to the Bloomington Entertainment & Arts District, a distinct area of town designed to foster a thriving environment for culture in the city. BEAD is especially a strong supporter of the visual arts, and the district is filled with small and large galleries and workshops for artists. Live music is also available at many facilities in the area, including Back Door Bloomington, Brother's Bar and Grill, and Player's Pub, among others. There are also great museums spread throughout the city. The Indiana University Art Museum is certainly the largest, with a collection that included more than 45,000 pieces.
Now an annual event, the Bloomington Craft Beer Festival celebrates the growing craft beer movement. Brewers come to offer their newest creations for sampling by fans of great beer. If you're not a beer lover but enjoy chocolate, then the Week of Chocolate held each January will probably appeal to you. Another larger draw to the town is the IU Little 500 Weekend, an extremely high-profile cycling event. In Mid-June there is a combination event, when Arts Fair on the Square and Taste of Bloomington take place simultaneously. This makes for the perfect weekend event, filled with great entertainment and great food.
The BEAD is also a very good shopping destination. In many cases, this part of town provides you with the opportunity to shop right in the workshop of the craftsman you want to make a purchase from. The Community Farmer's Market is open every Saturday between April and November, and allows you to purchase produce and food products direct from local producers. The College Mall is a typical large shopping mall, anchored by a Macy's, Target, Sear, Bed, Bath and Beyond, and Dick's. If you're looking for something completely different, head to the Bloomington Antique Mall. You can spend hours combing the antiques for treasures that might be completely unique.
Indiana University Bloomington has a strong athletics program, and the support from the town for the program might be even stronger. Sports Illustrated has even recognized the Big Ten program as being supported by one of the best college sports towns around. The team is known as the Hoosiers, and they have a proud tradition of winning, including 8 championships in soccer. Although many of the sports the Hoosiers play in locally are popular, perhaps the most popular sport is basketball. The team plays at Branch McCracken Court, and has brought home five NCAA championships. The most recent was in 1987.
To enjoy a trail that cuts right through the heart of the city, run, walk or ride your bike along the B-Line Trail. If you're willing to get a bit outside of the city your options for outdoor recreation are endless. The Blue Spring Caverns Park lets you take a river ride through a natural wonder. The longest local hiking trail is within the Griffy Lake Nature Preserve. This trail allows you to wander for more than 10 miles among perfectly preserved natural parkland. The protected area has a campground, and Griffy Lake was recently reseeded with a wide variety of fish to make for some excellent angling.

If you ever get an e-mail from a journalist, there's one portion of it you should pay attention to more than any other. No, it's not the part where they're asking you about the hamsters you're trying to genetically engineer to have human-like intelligence; it's the sign-off.
If it's "Cheers," you're cool. You did OK. If it's "Regards," you pissed somebody off, and you better figure out how to fix things, quick.
We apply those same tenets here, every week.
CHEERS to Denver Post editor Greg Moore for asking his staff to answer a question many editors are too scared to ask: Is our paper boring? And just as important, are the paper's decreasing resources being used in a way that could make it interesting? The answer at most papers is, "probably," and "probably not," respectively.
REGARDS to James Rainey at the Los Angeles Times' On the Media blog for his column arguing about how Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan's sexuality shouldn't matter by discussing her sexuality and the reasons to question it at length.
CHEERS to the Hollywood Reporter for sticking by its guns and getting a real-life scoop on NBC's fall lineup, even though they likely knew full well that the network would be none too happy about it.
REGARDS to the Oregonian for firing 12-year reporter Lisa Grace Lednicer for freelancing. Lednicer co-wrote a story in Glamour about a murder 26 years ago, and the editors at the Oregonian apparently thought that this breaking story from half a century ago should have been theirs first.
CHEERS to the Washington Post for making more of an effort to correct its mistakes. For whatever reason, the newsroom had done little to deal with a backlog of correction requests, but according to ombudsman Andrew Alexander, that mindset has changed for the better.
REGARDS to the Morgantown Dominion Post in West Virginia for (pretty badly) Photoshopping three delegates out of a posed photo of Gov. Joe Manchin signing a new law regarding hit-and-run incidents. The reason they removed the delegates? They didn't want to run a photo of politicians who are up for re-election. Well, guys, get another photo or don't run one.

Police divers find guns in canal
Underwater teams also retrieve a cracked phone and a broken watch
19 July, 2018 — By Tom Foot
TWO revolvers were hauled from the murky depths of the Regent's Canal yesterday (Wednesday).
Met police divers said they were working at the St Pancras Way bridge, by the Constitution pub, as part of a planned sweep of the canal for weapons. It was not connected with any single case. They were working for the Met's Operation Sceptre, set up to tackle the surge in knife violence across the capital.
Police say the operation has led to 500 arrests and taken more than 400 weapons off the streets.
A gun cartridge from another weapon was also recovered from the canal, along with a cracked iPhone and a broken watch. The four divers were taking turns in the water. The canal was not sectioned off during the search and the public were allowed to walk past.
The divers said that the guns recovered looked decades old and would likely be destroyed rather than checked by forensic teams.

Since its inception, Social Security has benefitted hundreds of millions of Americans in need. A large portion of these benefits go to those with severe disabilities who are unable to earn sufficient wages.
To be sure Social Security goes to those who need it most, income plays a large role in deciding who receives Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) and Supple-mental Security Income (SSI).
What are the income limits in order to not qualify for benefits?
Because Social Security handles so many unique situations, there are many facets to this question. To answer it, we will start with the basic numbers and explore the exceptions/details from there.
Keep in mind that your situation may be unique, as not all income is evaluated by the SSA. Some forms as income, such as child support, will not count against your total monthly earned income.
To qualify for SSDI, you must earn less than $1,170 per month. To qualify for SSI, you must earn less than $735 per month.
While these numbers do fluctuate, the income limit typically falls around this range. Anyone who earns more than this amount from jobs or under-the-table work qualifies as engaging in "substantial gainful activity" (SGA). Those who have SGA are considered independent enough to earn a living and do not qualify to receive disability insurance from Social Security. However, due to the national average wage index (which is used to create these income limits), these numbers tend to increase a bit each year.
Also important to note: the income limit to qualify for SSDI is raised to $1,950 for those who are blind. This is because the US government recognizes blindness as a unique disability in a world so catered to those with vision. This additional income is intended to cover any additional expenses that those who are blind need to survive.
Some forms of income are not included in these limits.
These differ slightly from SSDI to SSI. In regards to SSDI, most forms of income that are not made directly from work wages or under-the-table work are not included in substantial gainful activity. This includes investments, interest, a spouse's income, or other assets.
When referring to SSI, it gets a bit trickier. Some assets and interest may count towards the monthly total while others may not. However, income from a spouse does affect the limit for SGA — couples have an income limit of $1,103/month.
Even if you may have substantial gainful activity, you can still apply for SSDI/SSI.
Situations vary greatly from person to person. Depending on the nature of your disability and the nature of your income, you may still qualify for SSDI or SSI. Do not let these numbers prevent you from applying altogether — it is always better to apply and not qualify than not apply at all.
Consulting with a Social Security Attorney
Social Security can be complicated and very intimidating to apply for. It is also vital that everything is completed correctly so that your chances of receiving benefits are their highest.
To maximize your potential to receive benefits, consider getting assistance from a Social Security attorney. Their expertise in filing paperwork and presenting cases can make all the difference you need to qualify for the benefits you deserve.

Today we received the results of Skyler's food allergy testing in the mail. Two types of tests were administered. The first test was for IgE antibodies. An IgE reaction to food is an immediate reaction – skin rashes and lip swelling are examples. These are the types of allergic reactions we are all familiar with. The results are classified as 0 to IV, with class I being the least reactive and class IV being the most allergenic item. We started by testing egg white, soy bean, milk, wheat, corn, and yeast. Out of these foods, egg white was listed as "equivocal," meaning that it wasn't in the negative range, but also was not high enough to rank as class I. Milk was listed in the class I range, but just barely. The other foods were negative for IgE response. So, I guess this means that Skyler has an immediate reaction to milk (and possibly egg white), but thankfully a mild reaction. Needless to say, we will continue restricting milk from his diet.
The second type of test administered was for IgG antibodies. An IgG response is a delayed allergic reaction, and symptoms can widely vary. Symptoms may include fatigue, headache, constipation, hyperactivity, or irritability. These reactions are also classified on a scale of 0 to IV. We again tested the six foods previously mentioned. The results were shocking to say the least. While Skyler was negative for reaction to corn and soy bean, he ranked as a class III in wheat and cow milk and a class IV in egg white! Oh my!!! This means that he has a fairly strong delayed reaction to wheat and milk and a really strong delayed reaction to egg white. I don't quite know what to say about these results, but I am glad that we have another piece of information to aid us towards recovery. Each test result that comes back is yet another piece of the autism puzzle that takes us one step closer. I couldn't be more pleased with Dr. Biddle!
We now have a couple of options. We can eliminate these foods from his diet or we can administer allergy desensitization drops daily to help Skyler develop immunity towards these foods. I suspect that we will choose to administer the allergy drops because I would hate to restrict so many different foods from his diet. Also, to be perfectly honest, it would be very difficult for us to eliminate milk, wheat, and eggs from Skyler's diet because we eat out so often, and there just aren't a lot of restaurants around here that serve healthy food choices for children. A bottle of allergy drops can contain up to 18 different foods, so we will probably be testing other foods before ordering them so that we can include as many allergens as possible. Might as well get the biggest bang for our buck. The cost of this treatment runs at $165 every three months, and of course insurance does not cover it – big sigh. Between paying for monthly supplements, methyl-B12 shots, and now allergy drops, it is certainly costing a considerable amount each month to heal Skyler. But, it is definitely worth it!
We are already seeing amazing gains in language, pretend play, and socialization. Even skeptics are now beginning to admit that there is a huge difference in Skyler since we started this journey last month. I can't wait to see where this road takes us. If Skyler has made this many gains in a month, just imagine where he will be this time next year! I predict he will no longer be diagnosed on the autism spectrum. I couldn't be happier with his progress. I am one excited and proud mommy!

After a stressful few days worrying about bush fires in our area, it was time for my smallest child and I to do something fun and positive. So we got out the bee hive and little bee puppets I created for a wonderful ebook called Zero to Two.
And while Noah was playing with the puppets and saying the rhyme over and over again, I put together a quick animation to go with it. When I was done I invited Noah to come and say the rhyme with me so I could record it… I added his cute little squeaky voice to my animation and some gorgeous images from the ebook and played it back to him…
"That's me! Play it again! Pwwwwease Mummy… play it again!"
And so we have played this little video over and over, and counted bees, and smiled, and laughed, and let the stress melt away as we played.
Play is so important during times of stress, and every single day. And playing with our kids doesn't have to be difficult! This lovely ebook Zero to Two – a Book of Play is full of fabulous, doable ideas for babies and toddlers (and also bigger kids, because my little one is three and has loved trying out some of these activities!)

The modern day slaughter method in North America does not ensure that all the vessels of the throat are cut and that the blood is completely drained. This applies in particular to the contemporary method of slaughtering cattle which is known as the 'European Cut' or the vertical cut.
The scholars are unanimous on the fact that the meat of an animal which can be subdued is unlawful to consume if it is killed without cutting the vessels.
Why Vertical Cut is Not Good for Beef and Mutton Meat
As the name suggests, the slaughterer cuts the throat of the animal vertically starting from the heart and ending at the throat.
- This slaughter process does not ensure that the impure blood completely flows out of the animal and up to 18 pounds of impure blood remains in the cow after this slaughter process.
- Slaughterhouses employ this slaughter method to increase the weight of the animal, better preserve the hide of the animal, and for its convenient nature.
After consulting with many halal butchers Mississauga, the conclusion has been deduced that this slaughter process is unacceptable and renders the slaughtered animal as unlawful. The Halal authorities have observed this slaughter process and have arrived to this conclusion after extensive research.
Combination of vertical and horizontal cut is not effective
There is another slaughter method which includes both, vertical cut and horizontal cut.
- One slaughterer first cuts the skin vertically with a sharp knife.
- A second slaughterer then severs the jugular vein and carotid artery with two horizontal motions at the lower area of the throat, thus nicking the trachea in the process.
To some extent, this slaughter process is slightly better than a pure vertical cut since at least some vessels of the throat are partially severed. However, the minimum number of vessels of the throat which are required by the various schools of thought are not severed in this process.
Therefore, the pure vertical cut, modified vertical cut, and other similar slaughter methods go against the Sunnah method of slaughter and are doubtful methods of slaughter which do not completely fulfill the halal requirements.
How Halal Slaughter Process Works
In halal method:
- The animal's throat is cut with horizontal cut rather than vertical cut.
- Instead of two vessels, halal slaughter involves severing all the four vessels, or at least three. However, one school of thought says that two veins must be cut; esophagus and windpipe.
In this way, all the blood drains out of the animal, making the meat pure and healthy. Chop shop halal meat Mississauga service deploys this slaughter process, which is why the quality of meat is better than traditional meat.
For halal meat, here are few more requirements mentioned by halal meat shops Mississauga.
- The animal must belong to herbivorous group, but not all animals are included. Cow, goat, camel and sheep are included in the group. Pig is not considered to be clean due to the environment it lives in.
- The animal must have grown up; at least 2 years for cows and one year for goat.

When hit with a natural or man made disaster (small or large) that takes out the grid, it's not long before lack of electricity affects us. How do I keep the food cold and the house warm? When will the power come back on? How do I keep the phone charged so I can maintain contact with the outside world?
When a major storm hits, it can take weeks to get the power grid back in operation. The bigger the outage, the longer repairs are likely to take. See "When the Power Grid Fails – 10 Things You Need to Prepare" for more info on preps for a grid down situation.
There are many ways to have emergency power when the rest of the neighborhood is dark.

Emergency Power Option #1 – Gas Generator
The simplest emergency power option is to get a small gas generator and a large can of gasoline. Long extension cords can be run to vital items like refrigerator, freezer and microwave. Appliances are easy to power from a generator – they have cords attached. Powering something like your furnace is more difficult. You would have to open the wiring junction box and splice in a cord end. This is easy for an electrician to "jerry-rig" it but not for the average homeowner.
If you plan ahead, you can have a transfer switch installed next to your existing electrical panel. With this transfer switch installed, you can run a larger cord from the generator to a dedicated receptacle that feeds a small "critical loads" sub-panel. For the most part, a generator doesn't need to back-up your entire house, just vital items. The transfer switch prevents you from back-feeding the utility grid (see "Solar Electric Basics" for more information on this danger) by isolating your generator from the main panel. (Editor's note: Top photo in the post is our generator "dog house", which is hard wired into our home power system. Photos below show primary and secondary breaker boxes in our home.)
Gas Generator Pros:
- Power when you need it
- Portability
- Relatively inexpensive
Gas Generator Cons:
- Noisy
- Need refueling
- Smelly exhaust
- Fixed power capacity
A generator has a rated power output listen in watts or kilowatts. They can also produce small bursts of power needed for motors starting, but then go back to their rated amount. If you aren't using much power, the generator still is running, wasting energy. A small generator can cost a few hundred dollars to upwards of two thousand.

Editor's note: We're currently housing our generator in a modified Suncast BMS4700 The Stow-Away Horizontal Storage Shed. The guys put louvers in the ends for air flow, and cut a hole through on of the doors for the exhaust pipe. Small holes were punched in back of the unit so the plugs could reach the tie in on the side of the garage.
Dual Fuel
When our 20+ year old generator died in 2017 we researched. We still like the gasoline generators and wanted the flexibility of using gasoline, but to give us more options we started looking around and found the option of gasoline or LPG (propane) generators. After researching even more we settled on this unit – the Champion Power Equipment 100165 7500 Watt Dual Fuel Portable Generator with Electric Start. The price on Amazon was high, so we searched for a bit. You will probably want to search through Amazon or other sellers, we ended up finding it locally for $879. The main advantage of the Dual Fuel unit, is that we already have propane, and were considering another large tank for backup anyway, so this fits right in – plus it was not overly expensive, given that we do experience periodic power interruptions.
Emergency Power Option #2 – Battery Backed-Up Systems
Next rung up on the emergency electrical power food chain are Battery Backed-Up Systems. These are not car batteries, but deep cycle ones. They are heavier, more expensive, and designed differently.
Battery Backed-up systems have a battery bank that is connected to an inverter. The inverter changes the 12v or 24v DC voltage to a usable 120/240v AC voltage used in your house. Then the inverter is connected to the critical load panel through the transfer switch. Some hybrid inverters already incorporate the transfer switch internally, connecting automatically – fast enough that your electronic items won't know that there is an outage.
Examples of Deep Cycle Batteries
- Mighty Max ML35-12 – 12V 35AH U1 Deep Cycle AGM Solar Battery
- VMAX Solar Vmaxtanks Vmaxslr125 AGM Deep Cycle 12v 125ah SLA rechargeable Battery for Use with Pv Solar Panels,Smart chargers wind Turbine and Inverters
- WindyNation 12V 100 Amp-Hour (240 Minute Reserve Capacity) AGM SLA Deep Cycle VRLA Battery RV, Solar, Wind, Marine, Off – Grid
Battery Backed-Up System Pros:
- Quiet operation
- No gas exhaust
- Cordless
- No refilling a gas tank
Battery Backed-Up System Cons:
- Limited amount of power available before they need to be recharged
- May require a small generator to recharge them during prolonged outages
However, one hour of generator run time can keep the batteries charged for hours. For short interruptions lasting only a couple hours, the batteries can keep things going and then recharge when the power returns.
Moving up on the list is to have solar panels recharging the batteries, but that is the most expensive system and is an article all to itself. See "Surviving Without the Grid – Emergency Backup Power" for more information.
Emergency Power Option #3 – Spot Chargers
Section added by Laurie, because we've ended up with more short term than long term outages – thankfully!
To provide lighting and power for small electric devices, consider solar or crank powered lamps and chargers. We've added a several solar and crank products to our emergency preparedness supplies, including:
A lantern with a solar panel and hand crank for charging that also has a USB charger built in for charging cell phones and other small electronics, LED Crank flashlights and Emergency radio with solar panel, crank power, flashlight and cellphone charger.
For short outages, having a little light and contact with the outside world can make the time fly much faster. The new LED products provide a lot more light at a fraction of the power requirements of older flashlights (see our favorite basic emergency flashlight). Lamps often come with different lighting levels (like the one above), so you can set it bright enough for reading or turn it down to night light level to conserve power. These three options are all light and portable, and would also be handy for camping.
Biolite now offers products that provide power directly from a small camp stove, so you can do double (or triple) duty with one piece of equipment – cook or heat water, charge a phone, and provide lighting.

How to Get rid of hemorrhoids and the Irritation and Burning
Piles also known as hemorrhoids are painful swollen veins that are located in the rectum or anus area of the human body. Piles are also referred as rectal lump or large in the rectum.
- The condition of piles or hemorrhoids is normal especially for women during pregnancy of after giving birth.
- This is because of the increased pressure within the veins if the anus that is brought on from pregnancy.
- The added pressure provokes the veins in order to bulge or swell that in return is painful mostly while sitting.
- The major cause of piles or hemorrhoids is due to straining during bowel movements.
- This simple method in the event that rushed or compelled can have some painful outcomes.
- Constipation, sitting for long periods of time or an anal infection is also known to be cause of piles.
Understand that there are internal and external piles / hemorrhoids. Internal piles are located just in the anus and tend to be not painful. Many times a person is not even aware that they have inside piles. External piles / hemorrhoids tend to be visible, commonly located lust outside of the anal opening they appear as huge lumps and therefore are related with pain, itching, burning sensations. They may bleed as well which along with the pain and discomfort is also embarrassing.
Here are Some of the More Common Symptoms of Piles / Hemorrhoids.
Anal itching.
Anal Pain
Pain while sitting.
PILES TREATMENT AT HOME I Home Remedies For Piles Cure
Here is an informative video on PILES TREATMENT AT HOME. WATCH this video to learn PILES CURES that work. Piles, Causes Symptoms & Natural Home ...
Bright Red Blood With the Anal Area
Painful bowel movements.
Lump Near the Anus
As described earlier pile / hemorrhoids are common especially with people over the age of 50. If you believe you have hemorrhoids and you have the signs listed above then you need in order to take action in order to rid them. You can visit your physician and confirm your condition but unless your condition is serious you should be able to deal with the piles / hemorrhoids condition yourself within the privacy of your own home.
Again as long as your condition is not extreme and by severe I mean you see significant large amounts of not the normal red blood color but black or maroon colored blood. Also if your experience high levels of discomfort then you really should see a doctor right away. But if you have normal sign then make it easy on yourself and begin a home treatment program.
There a wide range of home treatments available and there is much more to them than just applying ointment for your anal sphincter location. Natural food diet and lifestyle change will probably have to be made that all depends on your current diet and daily activities. I recommend that you take a look at some of the natural home treatments available not only will you save time and money but you avoid the embarrassment too.
Troy Powers is a firm believer in normal medicines and recommends for those who suffer with hemorrhoids to be able to immediately begin a natural home treatment for hemorrhoids. This is the least difficult and most effective way to rid basic hemorrhoid conditions.
