Do I need surgery for piles, fissure or fistula?
Not always. Many cases, especially early-stage piles or fissure, can be managed with lifestyle changes, diet, herbal therapies, and therapies like Kshar Sutra. Surgery or invasive procedures are considered only in severe or recurring cases.

What is Pathya and Apathya?
- Pathya means recommended foods and habits that support healing (e.g. fiber-rich diet, warm water intake, regular walks).
- Apathya refers to things to avoid (e.g. spicy/oily/ fried foods, prolonged sitting, late-night meals) that aggravate anorectal conditions.

Can diet alone cure piles or fissure?
Diet plays a critical role. A proper diet can reduce symptoms and prevent worsening, but complete healing often requires a combination of diet, lifestyle changes, and Ayurvedic therapies.

Does excessive non-vegetarian food worsen piles, fissure, or fistula?
Yes. Heavy non-veg, especially when spicy or oily, can cause digestive disturbances, increase inflammation, aggravate constipation, and thus worsen these conditions.

How does prolonged sitting affect anorectal health?
Sitting for long durations without breaks can reduce blood flow in pelvic/anal area, cause strain, worsen venous pressure, and make it easier for piles, fissure or fistula to arise or become painful.

What lifestyle changes do you recommend?

- Taking regular breaks if you sit for long periods
- Regular daily walks or mild exercise
- Drinking enough warm water
- Sleep hygiene (avoiding sleeping too late)
- Gentle yoga/pranayama to reduce stress

How does insomnia or poor sleep contribute to piles, fissures, or fistula?
Poor sleep weakens digestion (Agni), increases stress, and reduces body’s ability to heal. This can lead to hard stools, more inflammation, delayed healing, and aggravation of anorectal conditions.

Are treatments like Kshar Sutra available at Shukratara Ayurved?
Yes. Shukratara offers Kshar Sutra among other Ayurvedic and non-surgical therapies as part of its treatment options. Read Our Treatment List Here.

How long is the recovery period?
It varies based on severity. Mild conditions may improve within a few weeks with proper diet, lifestyle, and treatment. More severe or chronic cases may need longer treatment and follow-up.

Is it safe to continue usual daily routine or work during treatment?
Yes – many patients can resume daily activities soon after certain treatments, provided lifestyle + diet modifications are followed. Heavy physical work or things that cause strain are avoided until improvement begins.

What makes Shukratara Ayurved different from clinics offering only modern surgical approaches?
Shukratara emphasizes natural healing, combining classical Ayurvedic treatments with advanced techniques, minimal pain or downtime, low recurrence rates, without unnecessary hospitalization or drastic surgery whenever possible.
