Piles – Say No To Surgery

Say No to Surgery and opt for Specialized Ayurvedic Treatment.

Piles are the tortuous veins which bulge out into the anal canal. There are so many factors responsible for this engorgement of the anal veins. The most common cause is chronic constipation. In such conditions patients have to strain for defecation which puts pressure on the veins leading to congestion and engorgement. When these veins get ruptured by passing hard stools or due to straining it initiates characteristic painless bleeding. Bleeding may be in the form of fresh blood drops or spurts of fresh blood. At this stage, bleeding is the only symptom that patients complain of. This is known as the 1st-degree Hemorrhoids.

When these congested rectal veins increase in size, the pile mass may protrude out during defecation. After passing stool, the pile mass reduces by itself and sometimes patients have to reduce the pile mass manually. This stage is labelled as 2nd-degree piles. When these pile masses further increase in size they may protrude out during walking or sitting etc this is known as third-degree piles.

Type of Piles

Piles also known as hemorrhoids, are dilated, engorged veins carrying blood in the anal canal. In simpler words, these are dilated blood veins that are located near the areas of the anus. Piles are mainly of two types in nature namely:

Internal Hemorrhoids
External Hemorrhoids

The internal ones are more common in occurrence in the human body than the external ones. Most often, these appear around two centimetres above the opening of the anal canal.

As the name suggests, the external piles occur on the outside area of the anus.

Whereas the internal piles are present inside the anal canal. Here are different stages of internal piles.

1st stage- The patient complains of painless bleeding during defecation.
2nd stage- There is painless bleeding along with mass protruding out per rectum during defecation which gets reduced by itself or manual reduction is necessary.
3rd stage- Pile mass could not be reduced back or if reduced by force; these come out even on coughing, walking or sitting
Some classify piles differently as when the manual reduction is required; it is the 3rd stage while when pile mass is not reducible; it is the 4th stage of internal piles.
