As per your complaints your constipation and piles is a result of constant vata aggrevation and agni ( digestive fire disturbances) due to fasting and one meal a day .

You need to have atleast warm milk with ghee in night instead of not eating anything

You will also need Panchkarma procedures like basti

Once your digestion issue is corrected eventually constipation will be cleared and you can eat normal food

For that need to know detail about your diet pattern

Dealing with constipation and a history of piles surgery can be quite challenging. Your current lifestyle - weekly fasting and only one meal a day - may be affecting your digestive health, especially your agni, or digestive fire, according to Ayurveda. An imbalanced agni can lead to issues like constipation and gas.

Let’s first address the food intake. Although fasting can provide certain health benefits, doing it for such a long time can dampen your digestive fire. Try to have small, easily digestible meals spread throughout the day instead of One heavy meal. Foods that are warm, cooked, and seasoned with digestive spices like cumin, ginger, and turmeric can help stimulate your agni. Avoid cold, raw foods, which can be harder to digest and may aggravate constipation.

Hydration is key: ensure you’re drinking enough warm water throughout the day. Start your morning with a glass of warm water; you could add a spoon of lemon or honey if you like. This can help stimulate bowel movements and clear constipation naturally.

In terms of lifestyle, brisk walking for about 20-30 minutes each day can enhance digestion and metabolism. Yoga asanas such as Pawanmuktasana and Malasana can also support bowel health. Avoid long periods of sitting, which can contribute to digestive stagnation.

Consider triphala churna before bed, as it’s a classical Ayurvedic formulation known for its laxative effects and the ability to balance vata dosha. Mix about a teaspoon with warm water, but if you’re currently on any medications, consult with healthcare practitioner before trying new supplements.

Since you’ve had surgery twice, it’s really important to discuss any new symptoms or persistent issues with your doctor to exclude any complications. A collaborative approach between modern medical guidance and Ayurvedic recommendations can be safely balanced to improve your overall health.
