Ayurveda Explains: Common Myths and Facts About Piles, Fissure, and Fistula
In today’s world, anorectal problems like Piles (Hemorrhoids), Fissure, and Fistula are becoming increasingly common due to sedentary lifestyles, poor diet, and irregular bowel habits. Unfortunately, many people fall prey to myths and misconceptions that delay proper treatment.
Let’s uncover the truth and understand these conditions with the help of Ayurveda and clinical experience at Shukratara Ayurved, Nashik.
🔴 Myth 1: Piles, Fissure, and Fistula are the same disease.
✅ Fact:
Although they occur in the same region, they are completely different conditions.
- Piles involve swollen veins in the rectum or anus.
- Fissure is a small tear in the anal lining causing pain and bleeding.
- Fistula is an abnormal tract between the anal canal and skin.
Each requires a distinct treatment approach in Ayurveda.
🔴 Myth 2: These conditions always need surgery.
✅ Fact:
Surgery is not the only solution. In fact, many cases of Piles, Fissure, and Fistula can be effectively treated through Ayurvedic therapies, Ksharasutra treatment, and lifestyle correction at Shukratara Ayurved.
Ayurveda aims for permanent healing by balancing doshas and preventing recurrence.
🔴 Myth 3: Only older people get these problems.
✅ Fact:
These conditions are increasingly common even among young adults due to long sitting hours, low-fiber diets, and chronic constipation. Prevention through diet and routine bowel care is key for all age groups.
🔴 Myth 4: Pain and bleeding after passing stool is normal.
✅ Fact:
It’s not normal. Pain, itching, or bleeding during bowel movements can indicate Piles or Fissure and should never be ignored. Early Ayurvedic consultation helps in quick and complete recovery.
🔴 Myth 5: Using over-the-counter creams or home remedies is enough.
✅ Fact:
Such temporary relief methods may worsen the condition. Ayurveda focuses on identifying the root cause — correcting digestion, improving bowel habits, and restoring anal health naturally.
🔴 Myth 6: Piles and Fissure are caused by spicy food only.
✅ Fact:
While spicy food can aggravate symptoms, irregular eating habits, constipation, dehydration, and stress are major root causes. Ayurveda recommends a balanced, fiber-rich diet with timely meals for prevention.
🔴 Myth 7: Fistula once operated never returns.
✅ Fact:
In modern surgical methods, recurrence is common. However, Ayurvedic Ksharasutra therapy has shown high success rates with minimal recurrence when done by experts at Shukratara Ayurved.
