Piles/Hemorrhoids
Piles clinically known as Hemorrhoids, are the swelling of the blood vessels near the anal opening. An increased pressure on these blood vessels due to any reason, causes them to enlarge and swell, thus forming lumps which are occasionally felt at the anal opening.
Piles are just a mass of dilated and tortuous veins that occur in the anal canal. These dilated veins arise from under the mucous membrane in the lower rectum. They form a mass containing several branches of veins which descend down the anal canal giving rise to piles. It is these dilated veins that cause pain, bleeding, and other discomfort at the anus.
Symptoms of Piles
- Painless bleeding while passing stools
- Feeling a lump outside the anus
- Itching around the anus
- Fecal soiling of undergarments
- If a blood clot forms in the hemorrhoid (Thrombosed hemorrhoid) it leads to a severely painful swelling which worsens with bowel movement and sitting.

Depending upon the severity of the disease piles can be classified into 4 grades. Initial grades of piles can be treated with medications, physiotherapy and Ayurveda treatment. But if the disease advances then surgery is recommended. Laser surgery for piles or hemorrhoids is painless and bloodless. Also there is negligible recurrence rate after the surgery.
