Piles Treatment

Piles (also known as hemorrhoids) are swollen veins in the lower rectum or anus. Treatment for piles depends on the severity of the condition and can include both non-surgical and surgical options. Below is a description of common piles treatment services:

1. Non-Surgical Treatment

For mild to moderate piles:

a. Medication

• Topical creams and ointments: Reduce itching, inflammation, and pain.

• Oral medications: Pain relievers, stool softeners, or laxatives to ease bowel movements.

b. Dietary & Lifestyle Counseling

• High-fiber diet plans: To soften stool and reduce straining.

• Hydration and exercise advice: Improve digestion and bowel health.

c. Minimally Invasive Procedures

• Rubber Band Ligation: A rubber band is placed around the base of the hemorrhoid to cut off blood supply. The hemorrhoid shrinks and falls off.

• Sclerotherapy: A chemical solution is injected to shrink the hemorrhoid.

• Infrared Coagulation (IRC): A heat-producing device is used to clot the blood and shrink the hemorrhoid.

2. Surgical Treatment

For severe or recurrent cases:

a. Hemorrhoidectomy

• Surgical removal of large external or prolapsed internal hemorrhoids.

• Done under local or general anesthesia.

b. Stapled Hemorrhoidopexy

• A circular stapling device repositions and removes the hemorrhoid tissue.

• Less painful with quicker recovery compared to traditional surgery.

3. Post-Treatment Care Services

• Follow-up consultations

• Wound care and hygiene guidance

• Pain management

• 24/7 support hotline (for some clinics)

4. Advanced Treatment Centers May Offer

• Laser treatment for piles (minimally invasive, faster healing)
