What is the Treatment for Piles?
Piles of hemorrhoids is an anorectal disease in which, due to dilated veins in the rectum and anal canal, the individual can suffer from severe anal pain while passing stools, walking, sitting, and running. The symptoms in piles result from irritated and swollen tissues, muscles, and blood vessels inside or outside the anus. If not treated, piles can lead to more future complications. Pile treatment can be non-surgical as well as surgical.
Non-surgical treatment includes medications, lifestyle changes, dietary modifications, and surgical interventions. In more severe cases, surgery is necessary. Surgical procedures like laser piles surgery, open piles surgery, sclerotherapy, cauterization, and rubber band ligation are also options from which the doctor and the patient choose the best for the particular case.

Signs and Symptoms of Piles:
If you experience the following, then a visit to the piles specialist may be necessary:
- Bright red blood in stools.
- Pain during sitting.
- Mucoid discharge in underwear.
- Itching in the anus.
- Something coming out of the anal opening.
Looking at all of these symptoms, the doctor will perform a digital rectal examination to ascertain the location and type of hemorrhoid. The surgeon will suggest the best possible next step based on the findings.
Risk Factors for Piles:
Piles can happen due to some amount of genetic or anatomical factors but primarily because of lifestyle factors such as the following:
- Chronic constipation.
- Low-fiber diet.
- Sedentary lifestyle.
- Pregnancy.
- Liver disease.
- Straining on the toilet.
Avoiding and eliminating these risk factors and taking in activities like drinking lots of water, eating raw fruits and vegetables, living an active lifestyle, reducing weight, and getting regular full body checkups can keep piles and other lifestyle diseases at bay.

Treatment for Piles:
Pile treatment has to be a combination of both lifestyle changes and surgical treatment in severe cases. In mild cases with eminent risk factors, conservative treatment is sufficient.
In conservative treatment, the following aspects are advised
- Increased fiber and water intake.
- Increase in physical activity.
- Use of laxatives.
- Avoid straining during the passage of stools.
- Use of pain relief gels that can be locally applied.
In addition to these, many piles surgeries are also available. The choice of surgery depends on the doctor, the patient as well as the severity of the piles. Laser piles surgery, open piles surgery, sclerotherapy, cauterization, and rubber band ligation are some of the surgical options available.
The most advanced piles surgery is laser piles surgery. Laser haemorrhoidopexy has been increasingly preferred because of the minimally invasive procedures, less blood loss, faster recovery, and few complications.
What happens in a piles operation?
- Before the procedure, a battery of tests, known as the surgical profile, is done, and anesthesia fitness is checked. The surgeon explains all about the surgery, the risk, and the benefits and takes the signatures for the necessary consent for surgery. The night before or on the day of surgery, hospital admission occurs.
- At the time of the laser piles surgery, all your vitals, like blood pressure, blood oxygen levels, temperature, pain, and blood sugars, are checked, and the nurses shift you to the operation theatre.
- In the operation theatre, your placement on the operation table is done in a jackknife position with you lying to your side and one leg over the other or a lithotomy position with you lying on the table and your legs secured on the other additional support.
- The anesthesiologist then applies or gives an injection for anesthesia and makes the anal region insensitive to pain. The surgery is then carried out, and the procedure finishes within 40 minutes. The principle behind the surgery is using laser beam heat from fiber optic wire to shrink the vessels and blood supply to the hemorrhoids.
- Sometimes in the case of large hemorrhoids, the laser may be used to cut off the hemorrhoids after coagulation.
- Laser haemorrhoidopexy is a lasting solution for piles with fewer chances of recurring, primarily if the other risk factors are adequately managed.
- Once the surgery is done, the doctors shift you to the recovery room and keep you for observation. Doctors can discharge you after the anesthesia if there are no further complications.
