Ayurvedic Approach to Piles (Haemorrhoids) Treatment
What Are Piles?
Piles, also known as haemorrhoids (Arsha), are swollen and inflamed blood vessels in the anal canal. They can cause pain, discomfort, itching, and bleeding during defecation.
There are two types of hemorrhoids:
🔹 External Hemorrhoids – Painful, located outside the anal canal
🔹 Internal Hemorrhoids – Usually painless unless prolapsed
Based on severity, internal hemorrhoids are classified into four stages:
✅ Stage 1 – No prolapse, only painless bleeding
✅ Stage 2 – Prolapse during defecation, retracts spontaneously
✅ Stage 3 – Prolapse requiring manual reduction
✅ Stage 4 – Permanently prolapsed, may cause thrombosis and infection
Causes of Piles
🔹 Low water intake & fiber-deficient diet
🔹 Chronic constipation & prolonged straining
🔹 Sedentary lifestyle & prolonged sitting
🔹 Pregnancy
🔹 Alcohol & excessive red meat consumption
🔹 Use of Western commode
🔹 Ignoring the natural urge to defecate
