Lifting heavy weights can potentially contribute to the development or exacerbation of hemorrhoids. When individuals lift heavy objects, especially if done incorrectly or with improper technique, it can lead to increased intra-abdominal pressure. This elevated pressure may strain the veins in the rectal area, causing them to swell and become inflamed, resulting in the formation or worsening of hemorrhoids.
