  • Piles treatment has certainly evolved over the
    period of time. Take a look over here on some of
    the most effective treatment done for piles as
    per its extremity level.

3
How Does Piles Cripple You
  • HKS Colorectal Pte Ltd., a well-known clinic
    provides diagnostic and treatment services for
    such as endoscopy for screening of cancer and
    polyps along with full range of colon and rectum
    surgery for people suffering from various
    diseases related to rectal area.
  • When external or internal blood vessel in the
    anus starts to swell, a person is said to suffer
    from piles. As a result blood starts to clot in
    that part of the body and the pain is
    incorrigibly horrific for the individual
    suffering the pain.
  • The wall of the blood vessels in the anus gets
    stretched and is thinned out and tends to break
    easily.

4
  • Once this happens, bleeding occurs. Repetitive
    straining also causes the supporting ligaments in
    the blood vessel to become overstretched and
    loses its elasticity.
  • The blood vessel loses its elastic support and
    descends further down the anal canal and
    protrudes outside of the anus.

5
Various Steps of Piles
  • Piles (hemorrhoids) cases are usually considered
    four stages as per its severity.
  • 1) First degree is within the anal canal and
    there is no visible lump on the outside.
  • 2) Second degree occurs when its become bigger
    and bulge out during bowel movement. However, the
    bulge disappears once straining stops.
  • 3) Third degree hemorrhoids bulge out during
    bowel movement, but it stays out for a longer
    time before gradually going back into the anus or
    the patient may push it back in after bowel
    movement.

6
  • 4) Fourth degree, this is the most advanced
    stage. The piles are out of the anus all the time
    and cannot be pushed back in.

7
Symptoms at a Glance
  • Piles are mainly believed to be caused by the
    upright posture of humans which raises the
    pressure in the veins and can predispose humans
    to hemorrhoids.
  • Other postulated factors include chronic
    constipation, aging, pregnancy and childbirth.
  • The causes of piles can lead to the following
    symptoms
  • Bleeding during bowel movements
  • Lump at the anus coming out during bowel movements

8
  • Persistent lumps at the anus
  • Itching in the anal area
  • Pain

Methods to Get Cured
  • However with evolution in medical field, there is
    proper treatment of piles now as well.
  • Generally piles without any symptoms don't
    require any treatment.
  • Depending on the severity of the case, piles
    treatment is recommended.
  • For instance, in the first or second degree
    cases, symptoms can be relieved by reducing
    straining during bowel movement.

10
  • This could mean taking more fluids or laxatives.
    Oral medication or suppositories may be given by
    the doctor to relieve the symptoms.

11
  • However if that doesnt work, then further
    treatment is done
  • Ligation- the rubber band treatment
  • Sclerotherapy an injection is given to the area
    around the piles. This method is relatively
    painless and causes the piles to shrink.
  • Ultrasound guided hemorrhoid artery ligation
    uses an ultrasound probe to locate the arteries.
    A stitch is then used to tie off the artery. By
    interrupting the blood supply, the hemorrhoid
    shrivels up.

12
  • For extreme level of cases (3rd and 4th stage)
    Hemorrhoidectomy is the best method for the
    permanent removal. It is usually used for 3rd or
    4th degree piles or 2nd degree that has failed
    other treatments such as ligation.

13
To End
  • Many professional surgeons are now able to treat
    piles at early stages and cure the patient by
    reliving them of the pain. Piles when treated at
    the early stage, can prevent it from quickly
    accelerating into extreme levels.
