Posted: August 10, 2021 |
Piles is a terrible ailment that many patients put up with for years before seeking help. However, according to Bhuj-based piles treatment specialist Dr. Dipesh Thacker, there is now a safer and speedier solution for you. During these unusual times, kadha or herbal immunity potions have become an essential element of one's life. However, there has been an unintended consequence. There has been an increase in the number of piles patients and other unpleasant illnesses due to many people eating kadhas without the knowledge of doctors during COVID-19. Kadha is a herbal infusion made with ginger, lemon, garlic, turmeric, pepper, Aloe Vera, or berries.
Kadha consumption has risen at an alarming rate, namely among comorbidities or blood thinners, or drugs for chronic diseases. Constipation, increased body heat, heavy bleeding, and piles can all occur if you consume more than the recommended amount. Having piles can take away your peace of mind and make you feel embarrassed. However, the good news is that piles can now be readily addressed. Aside from established treatments for this ailment, a new laser technique is getting a lot of traction among patients. Compared to alternative treatment options, laser hemorrhoidoplasty is gaining popularity due to its short recovery period and higher safety margin. Swollen vessels (cushions) in the anorectal area are known as piles (anus). When they are not prolapsing but are observed as clogged vessels, they are designated as grade I. When they prolapse during defecation but diminish naturally, they are in Grade II. They prolapse and require a manual reduction in grade III, and they are irreducible in grade IV. Symptoms of symptomatic hemorrhoids include pain, itching, bleeding, discharge, and prolapse. The first course of treatment consists of lifestyle changes.
Types:
Internal hemorrhoids are hemorrhoids that form inside the rectum. You can't usually see or feel them, and they rarely cause pain. When passing faeces, however, straining or irritation might lead to: • Bleeding that isn't painful during bowel movements. Small amounts of bright red blood may be found on your toilet tissue or in the toilet. • A prolapsed or projecting hemorrhoid that pushes through the anal orifice, causing pain and irritation.
When blood pools and forms a clot (thrombus) in external hemorrhoid, it can cause: • Excruciating discomfort • Swelling • Inflammation • A hard bump on the back of your neck near your anus
After conservative treatment fails, piles can be treated with various additional treatment modalities, according to a piles treatment specialist at the renowned Akshar Hospital in Bhuj. The use of a laser to cure piles The most common benign anorectal disease detected in the outpatient setting is hemorrhoids. From office procedures to hemorrhoidectomy, there are a variety of treatment options available. Laser technology is becoming more popular in the field of proctology. The use of laser radiation for piles, fissures, fistulas, and pilonidal sinus patients is a relatively new treatment. Probes produce short, high-energy light pulses converted into heat energy and absorbed by the surrounding tissues.
Laser hemorrhoidoplasty: A safer option The latest 30-minute therapy and day-care procedure for piles is intra-hemorrhoidal laser coagulation, known as Laser hemorrhoidoplasty (LHP). It is a sphincter-saving treatment that is technically straightforward, minimally invasive, safe, and successful. In comparison to traditional open surgical hemorrhoidectomy, it is favored. It entails delivering pulsed laser energy to the submucosal rectal tissue, which allows for vascular ablation, vaporization, and coagulation with minimal tissue injury. Advantages of this treatment This technique has numerous advantages. After the surgery, one can return to work right away. Compared to operational treatment, laser ablation is more successful. According to Bhuj's piles' treatment professionals, below are some of its advantages. • The duration of postoperative pain is shorter. • Hemorrhoidal pockets are regressing more quickly. • It provides patients with immediate symptom alleviation. • In addition, there is no risk of faeces leakage or incontinence. • There are fewer postoperative problems such as bleeding, discomfort, stenosis, and recurrence, making it a safer procedure. • There will be fewer hospital visits after the surgery since there is a lower risk of infection. In contrast, open surgery for piles is associated with bleeding, problems, pain, and infection, all of which can lead to a lengthy hospital stay.
