Phobia Of Piles???

Question

Hey, does anyone know if there is a Phobia for frear of picking up piles.... if so what is the name of it.

Answer 1

No, there is no specific phobia that I am aware of for piles (hemorrhoids). However, there are other phobias you can use:
monopathophobia- fear of a definite disease
rectophobia- fear of rectal diseases

By the way, you can't "pick up" hemorrhoids....they are not contagious. They are usually caused by constipation, so increase your roughage (fiber, green vegies, fruit, cereal) and fluid intake. Since they are caused by constipation, do not strain when going to the bathroom. They can also be caused by pregnancy.
