What are piles ?

Piles, also known as hemorrhoids, are

swollen veins and muscle around your anus
or in your anal canal. Your anal canal is a
short, muscular tube with blood vessels
that connects your rectum (back passage)
with your anus. Piles can develop when this
tissue becomes swollen, possibly as a result
of straining on the toilet. Sometimes, piles
can be painful and bleed if they become
damaged.
Piles are also common during and after
pregnancy. They may develop due to
changes in the hormones (chemicals) in
your body and the increased pressure in
your abdomen (tummy), although doctors
aren't sure. They usually get better once
your baby is born.

1: Internal Piles : Internal piles are usually not painful but these bleed
when they are irritated such as during the passage of hard stools. They
can be classified into four grades:
2: External Piles: External
piles present as a swelling
outside the anus. Its
create
irritation
and
itching. These can be
painful sometimes and
usually do not bleed.

Internal hemorrhoids are

classified into four grades:
Grade 1 - there are small
inflammations, usually inside the
lining of the anus. They are not
visible
Grade 2 - larger than grade 1
hemorrhoids, but also inside the
anus. When passing a stool, they
may get pushed out, but return
unaided
Grade 3 - often called 'prolapsed
hemorrhoids'; these appear outside
the anus. The patient may feel
them hanging out. They can be
pushed back in if the patient
presses with their finger
Grade 4 - these cannot be pushed
back in and need to be treated by a
doctor. They are large and stay
outside the anus all the time.

External hemorrhoids are called perianal hematoma. These are small lumps
that are located on the outside edge of the anus. They are very itchy and can
be painful if a blood clot forms inside (thrombosed external hemorrhoid).
Thrombosed external hemorrhoid requires medical treatment straight away.

Causes of Piles:
These include the following:
Genetic predisposition (weak rectal veins, walls)
Poor muscle tone in the rectal region
Constipation
Obesity

 Symptoms vary depending upon the site of piles, duration of

complaints and general health of the person.

standing or unusual physical exertion
Bleeding from the anus: This can occur before, during or after stools. This will be
bright red blood, not usually mixed with the stools, but often seen on the toilet paper.

Treating Piles - Why surgery is not advisable?

At the point when one has been determined to have piles, the
following evident thing that comes into one's psyche is its
treatment. The main treatment for piles or hemorrhoids that is
offered by Allopathy is the surgical alternative. There is no other
treatment in allopathy. The greater part of the patients are
apprehensive or careful about completing a surgery. There are a
few impediments of this surgical alternative. Surgery is lumbering
and costly too. In the meantime, the very reason for surgery is lost
when this issue repeats after some season of completing surgery.
Now and again, individuals don't know about the likelihood of piles
being dealt with in some other way and wind up completing
surgery. They don't glance around or make an inquiry or two for
different potential outcomes ie option or corresponding treatment
for piles. It is just later when the issue repeats that they lament
their choice of completing surgery and begin searching for a few
choices. Surgery is not generally advised. But in allopathy there is
chance of reoccurrence also after surgery if the cause does not
rectified or modified

Who gets piles?

Piles can occur at any age, but are more common in older
people. They affect both men and women. In fact, most
people suffer from piles at some time, but usually they are
nothing more than a temporary problem. Many experts
believe that they are caused by continuous high pressure in
the veins of the body, which occurs because humans stand
upright. They are particularly common in pregnancy because
of the additional pressure from the baby, and because of
hormonal changes. Sometimes they result from straining hard
to pass faces, which is more likely if you do not eat enough
fiber, or lifting heavy weights. They are not caused by sitting
on hot radiators or cold, hard surfaces, or by sedentary jobs. A
family history, as with many other health-related problems, is
frequently found and is likely to be a significant risk factor for
developing piles.

How do I know its just piles?

Piles often cause bleeding, but the blood tends to be on
the paper or the pan, or on the edge of your stool. It
tends to be bright red and you may also pass mucus.
The bleeding of piles is often linked to pain, itching or
soreness just inside your bottom or on the skin around
it. You may also notice a lump protruding from your
bottom. One kind of pile (called an external pile or
perianal haematoma) can cause a sudden, intensely
painful lump just outside your anus. The pain usually
settles on its own within 2-3 days, but if you catch it
early your doctor may be able to remove the blood and
relieve the pain.

Homeopathic medicines are very highly effective in management of piles and

the symptoms associated with it such as pain, bleeding, itching, etc. The point
to be emphasized is that the relief of symptoms is obtained with absolute
gentleness and without invasion or surgery of any kind. Besides, the condition
has high backslide rate taking after surgical treatment, since surgery does not
focus on the main drivers such as hereditary inclinations, periodic clogging,
and so forth. Homeopathic drugs work at the root level and can change these
hereditary inclinations accordingly decreasing odds of backslide and repeat of
the condition essentially. Homeopathy treatment reduces the intra abdominal
pressure. There are good medicines that relieve constipation which plays
major role in developing piles. The common homeopathy medicines are
bryonia, alumina, nux vom, anacardium, lycopodium, platina, Homeopathy
