Suffering from piles .what to do?
Hello Somnath, Ji,
Thank you for reaching out to the HexaHealth doctor community.
Piles (also known as haemorrhoids) are swollen veins in the rectal area that can cause pain, itching, discomfort, and bleeding during bowel movements. The right treatment depends on the severity of your symptoms.
Here’s what you can do:
For mild piles:
- Eat a high-fibre diet (fruits, vegetables, whole grains)
- Drink plenty of water
- Avoid straining during bowel movements
- Use sitz baths (warm water baths for the anal area)
- Over-the-counter creams or ointments may help relieve discomfort
For moderate to severe cases:
If symptoms persist or worsen, it’s best to consult a specialist. Depending on the grade of piles, minimally invasive or surgical options like laser treatment, stapler surgery, or rubber band ligation may be recommended.
We suggest you book a consultation with a HexaHealth expert to get a personalised and appropriate treatment plan.
Feel free to reach out — we’re here to help you get relief quickly and safely.
