What are piles?

Piles or hemorrhoids are enlarged or swollen blood vessels in and around the lower rectum and anus. Symptoms of piles include pain, bleeding, itching, and skin irritation at the affected area.
Piles occur due to chronic constipation, straining too much during bowel movements, obesity, and smoking. Other causes are pregnancy and childbirth.

If the piles are untreated, they may cause infection, ulceration, bleeding (leading to low hemoglobin and requiring blood transfusion), and strangulation.

Diagnosis

Piles are diagnosed based on a physical exam.

Laser Treatment

In the laser treatment, an amplified beam of light emitted from the probe seals off the small blood vessels and nerves or burn and shrink the hemorrhoids. This therapy gives the advantage of emitting precise energy to target the exact area that requires treatment without affecting the surrounding tissue.

The process takes only a few minutes and you can return home the same day. No incisions or dressing required with this procedure and you can resume normal activities from the next day after surgery.
Laser treatment is highly effective when piles are in early stages, so it is recommended to consult a doctor immediately if you notice any persistent pain or bleeding during bowel movements.
