Piles Treatment in Jalandhar
Piles (haemorrhoids) are swollen blood vessels in and around the back passage that bleed, itch, or prolapse. They are extremely common and nothing to be embarrassed about. Most early piles settle without surgery; those that keep bleeding or prolapsing are treated with laser surgery as a daycare procedure. At Oxford Hospital, Jalandhar, piles are treated by laparoscopic and laser surgeon Dr. Ankit Raikhy.
Symptoms
- Bright red blood on stool or tissue
- A lump at the anus, especially after passing stool
- Itching, discomfort or mucus discharge
- Pain, usually with a clotted external pile
Treatment, step by step
- High-fibre diet, 2.5–3 litres of water a day, not straining or sitting long on the toilet
- Creams and medicines for symptom relief
- Laser treatment for piles that keep bleeding or prolapse — a daycare procedure with minimal pain
- Conventional surgery for very large or complicated piles
Not every bleed is piles
Rectal bleeding can also come from a fissure, polyps or, less commonly, bowel cancer. If you are over about 50, have a change in bowel habit, weight loss or anaemia, the surgeon may advise a colonoscopy before treating piles.
