Homeopathic Treatment for Piles

PILES (HEMORRHOIDS)

Due to change in our life style, bad eating habits in our routine life, so many diseases appear. There is no punctuality in our eating time, sleeping time, working time. Along with it there is lack of physical exercise with mental tensions and the result is many types of abdominal diseases such as Indigestion, Gastric problem, Acidity, Constipation etc. If these troubles go on for a long time, the person may suffer from Hemorrhoids.

WHAT ARE PILES

Piles or Hemorrhoids is a sort of disease related to anal veins, in which there is varicosity of anal veins and if pressure increases on these anal veins due to any cause (such as constipation), the walls of veins become weakened, which affects the process of dilatation and contraction in the veins and veins remain dilated at last. Blood doesn’t flow further from these dilated veins and remains accumulated, so veins become swelled up. Further it, if walls of veins become much weakened and pressure is more, the veins may rupture and blood oozes out. This whole process is just like the appearance of varicose veins in legs of those persons, who stand for a long time, but in these cases blood doesn’t come out as the veins of legs have more strength. Hemorrhoids word has originated from 2 Greek words Haima = Blood and Rhoos = Flowing and the Piles word is originated from a Latin word Pila = Ball like.

TYPES OF PILES

There are two types of piles mainly

1.      External- present at outer side of anus

2.      Internal- present in inner side of anus

Sometimes they are found combined and known as Intero – External Hemorrhoids. Sometimes Piles may be a symptom of a disease such as- anal cancer, during pregnancy, chronic constipation, making great effort for urinating (in case of prostatic hypertrophy and urethral stricture).

TREATMENT OF PILES

Hemorrhoids or Piles is taken as surgically treated disease in Allopathy or in other words Piles is considered to be treatable only by operation. But Homoeopathy can treat Piles successfully and permanently. Generally it is seen that patient gets nervous when blood comes out from Piles and pain occurs and in nervousness he gets it operated. But the problem appears again after sometime in most of the patients because surgery will not be effective until the cause of Piles persists. So patient must consider it that surgery can’t be the proper treatment for Piles, he will move towards Homoeopathy at last. If blood is coming out and pain is violent, then by taking Homoeopathic medicine bleeding will be stopped in few days and pain becomes subsided gradually. So this suffering should not bother patient. Here I want to add one important thing after Homoeopathic treatment, Piles move inside in number of patients, but in some cases Piles remain outside the anus, but in both conditions, the treatment is complete, because, the external Piles also will not create any type of problems after the treatment.  

NOTES TO BE CONSIDERED

We should consider some important things along with treatment. Those things should be avoided which cause Constipation, Acidity or Diarrhea because Piles may appear again and condition may be serious. Green vegetables, Fruit’s juices, Roughage, Water should be taken in much quantity; Oil, Ghee, Spicy things should be avoided. Morning walk is very useful in case of Piles or Hemorrhoids.
