What Causes Piles (Hemorrhoids)?

Piles, also known as hemorrhoids, are swollen veins in the rectum and anus. The most common causes of piles include:

• Chronic constipation: Straining during bowel movements.
• Pregnancy: Increased pressure on the lower part of the body.
• Obesity: Excess weight putting strain on the anal region.
• Sedentary lifestyle: Lack of physical activity.
• Aging: Natural weakening of tissues around the anus.
• Poor diet: Low-fiber diets leading to constipation.
• Heavy lifting: Strenuous activities that increase abdominal pressure.

At Gastrovision, we focus on addressing the root cause of your condition for long-lasting relief.

Types of Piles

There are four main types of piles, each requiring different treatment approaches:

1. Internal Piles: Found inside the rectum, these may not be visible but cause bleeding and discomfort.
2. External Piles: Located under the skin around the anus, these can cause itching, pain, and swelling.
3. Thrombosed Piles: External piles that develop blood clots and cause severe pain and swelling.
4. Prolapsed Piles: Internal piles that protrude from the anus, often causing pain and discomfort.

Our advanced diagnostic methods can quickly identify the type of piles you are suffering from, helping us tailor the right treatment.

Symptoms of Piles

Common symptoms of piles include:

• Painful swelling or a lump around the anus
• Rectal bleeding (bright red blood during bowel movements)
• Itching or irritation around the anus
• Pain during bowel movements
• Mucus discharge after passing stools
• Sensation of incomplete bowel movement

If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s essential to seek medical attention at Gastrovision for an accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment.

Diagnosis of Piles

Diagnosing piles involves a detailed evaluation by a specialist, including:

• Physical Examination: To check for swelling, lumps, or signs of hemorrhoids.
• Anoscopy: A procedure where a small tube is inserted into the anus to examine internal hemorrhoids.
• Sigmoidoscopy: A more detailed examination of the rectum and lower colon to rule out other conditions.
• Proctoscopy: A procedure to check for internal piles in the rectum and anus.

Our experienced doctors at Gastrovision will ensure you receive the most accurate diagnosis and effective treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Advanced Treatment Options for Piles

1. Laser Treatment for Piles

Laser surgery is a minimally invasive, highly effective treatment for piles. It uses a laser beam to shrink or remove hemorrhoids, causing minimal pain and a faster recovery time. Advantages include:

• Minimal pain and discomfort
• Quick recovery (usually within a day)
• Reduced bleeding risk
• No stitches required

2. Laparoscopic Surgery for Piles

Laparoscopic surgery is a cutting-edge method that uses small incisions and specialized instruments to treat severe piles. It is preferred for large, complicated hemorrhoids, offering:

• Faster recovery time
• Reduced scarring
• Less risk of complications
• Minimal pain post-surgery

3. Non-Surgical Treatments

For early-stage piles, we offer non-surgical treatments such as:

• Rubber Band Ligation: A non-invasive procedure where a rubber band is placed around the base of the hemorrhoid to cut off blood supply, causing it to shrink.
• Sclerotherapy: An injection of a chemical solution to shrink hemorrhoids.
• Infrared Coagulation: A procedure that uses heat to shrink hemorrhoids.

Our team will assess your condition and recommend the most suitable treatment for you.
