Okay, sounds like you’re dealing with something not so fun there. The pea-sized structure you’re noticing and the constipation paired with discomfort could indeed point to piles, known in Ayurveda as “Arsha.” Though, without seeing it, it’s hard to be 100% sure if it’s not a fissure or fistula, but given your symptoms, piles are quite likely.
Piles, from an Ayurvedic view, occur due to imbalance in your doshas particularly Vata and Pitta—your digestion and stress levels could contribute a lot. Let’s focus on a couple of things. First, diet. Think fibrous! Foods that are easy to digest, won’t weigh you down, and keep things moving. Ayurveda loves recommending whole grains like barley, and oatmeal, along with plenty of veggies like leafy greens, carrots, and squash. Fruits are also your friends—grapes, papaya, and figs can help ease constipation. Hydration! Can’t stress this enough. Warm water or herbal teas prevent things from getting all stuck inside.
You can also try a bit of Triphala at bedtime, you can find it in powder or tablet form. It’s a gentle, mild laxative that works wonders from inside out. But take it easy, start with a small amount and see how your body responds. A tablespoon of castor oil also helps particularly during acute pain phases.
Lifestyle-wise, sitting for extended durations ain’t helping. So, keep moving, even short walks can make a difference. Stress has a sneaky way of showing up in your gut, so anything like pranayama or meditation that helps ease the mind is gold.
If the bleeds or pain continues or worsens, you’d want to think about seeing a doc. Make sure to listen to your body carefully and not delay if things don’t improve. Good luck!
